***106th COMPLETED PROJECT!!***

Kappy: So what’s the verdict for the premiere episodes drifters? Yay or Nay?! I sincerely hope “third time the charm” describes Suzy’s acting improvement because I really adore her!

I highly recommend drifters give the 540p SAM versions a peek and be thoroughly impressed. It’s smaller in size as compared to 450p and better in quality. I love everything about it and will probably start uploading just that versions alone for future episodes, if you guys don’t object! 😉

    I’ve only got time to read recaps. I wonder if 720p is well worth DL-ing for this show. If I end up taking 720p then I’ll share links.

    I watched the first two episodes!! It’s a yay in my book and Lee Seung-gi hasn’t even showed up yet hahah XD
    I have to say the cinematography is beautiful!! This and Jang Ok Jeong is gonna be my crack this season.

    For the 540p SAM versions, the subtitles I get are for KOR version, so the video and subs won’t match each other. Is there anyway to fix that? Thanks!

      Hey Em, you can use online sources such as subshifter. For instance, for episode 1, the speech begins around 14 seconds into the video, you would input +14.0 into the time shift slot. Click resync, and you’re done! 🙂

      For your inquiry about the soundtrack, I usually wait until 3 parts have come out. Enjoy the drama!

        Thank you so much! subshifter works great!
        I’m really looking forward to the OST, thank you for all your hard work!!

          I tried the subshifter on episode 3 using darksmurf’s ep3 subs. Only the first line was re-synced. After that, none of the rest of the subs for that episode synced to the audio. I also tried it with Drama fever, MBC, and Viki subs too but didn’t work. Is it only episode 3 that isn’t working? Any ideas, guys?

        • 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

          I tried MBC subs and input -4 sec in the time shift to get it in sync. Somehow, my first line doesn’t show up but the rest does. Try that and see?

    hello!!! thank you for the episodes!!! and hopefully you wont stop uploading the 450p version, the 540p version freezes my computer 🙁 anyway thank you for your hard work

    • 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

      just curious, what player are you using? an old computer? i’ve tried playing my vids on just about every computer. tested on vlc, mpc, kmplayer, potplayer, etc… so far you’re the only person not able to play it. i haven’t heard anyone else not able to… so curious. as my settings aren’t that aggressive where it would need a powerful computer to play.

      Gom Player also works. I hope you can watch this version Marilu because I’m not keen on uploading two versions of one drama. =/ Let me know!

  11. 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

    Thanks for the uploads!

    I really dig the 540p version!

    Thanks for sharing. I am not too keen on mkv, though. I understand they’re clearer and have smaller file size but I would like to enjoy this on tv than in front of the pc. Please continue uploading mp4 or avi.

    • 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

      mkv is just another container. just like avi or mp4 would be. what is most important is what codec is contained within the container. as i use x264 codec (level 3.1) and MP3 variable bitrate. my mkv would be more compatible with most devices and is in fact easier to play than most other encodes using funky settings. mp4 using ffmpeg vs x264 is basically the same video codec. most avi like hanrel or kor use x264 just like i do except higher level which only some devices play. audio in avi is MP3 constant bitrate for most where mine is variable bitrate. in mp4 i’ve seen some use AAC which is vbr in nature and MP3 is more compatible.

      unless you have a specific reason why you think mp4 or avi is superior. i’d try it first. b4 you make any assumptions about video… again MKV, MP4, AVI they are all just containers and really what is important is the codec within the file… MKV just happens to be the most flexible and standard which everyone uses in new encodes.

      • 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

        Hello. I am not saying mp4 or avi is superior than mkv. I prefer them because they are easier to play on tv, Other file types just can’t play. When I try to convert mkv, my pc crashes. Other than than, no other particular reason. Just want to view the videos on tv.

        • 30 thoughts on “Kdrama: Gu Family Book Episodes

          i personally watch my created 540p mkv encodes on my tv. i have no playback issues. i know of people using playstation media player to play my files. wdtv and asus o!play players work as well. i know some samsung tv can play it direct off usb thumbdrives. as i have said, mkv, avi, mp4 they are just containers. what is important is the codec used!

          for video, i encode using x264, what mp4 files are encoded with and also most higher res avi files (unless specifically stated as xvid). i used level 3.1 which is more compatible with more devices then what old HANrel or current KOR uses. HANrel recently changed as they got smarter but now their quality got worse as they still don’t know what the heck they are doing.

          for audio, i use vbr MP3. this is where i differ. most use constant MP3. or in the case of MP4 they use AAC which is variable bitrate in nature. since MP3 is more universally playable i chose that format however wanted to keep bitrate small but offer better quality than most at constant MP3.

          i’d argue that my encodes are more playable for TV or for any other device than most other groups encodes. i have on a pinch have played my encodes on my smart phone without issues either….

          Hi sinecure. Unfortunately, there is no playback for mkv for our TV. I dunno why it wouldn’t play. Ours is Sony Bravia. It can detect the file but it would always say no playback available for it. :'( That’s the sad part.

    Can anyone kindly upload the synced subs for 540p Sam version? That would be great thks!
