The Problem Vanilla x264 is a marvel, but it assumes an ideal world: clean source, fast storage, and a friendly decoder on the other side. In my work (military simulation logging, hostile drone footage recovery, and long-term cold storage), bitrot, packet loss, and corrupted reference frames are the norm. stronghold x264

I haven’t watched this fully yet, but from what I know I have to say that this is surely awesome compared to what nonsense Bollywood is coming up with these days 🙂 😀
Absolutely… it is worth watching… actually almost everything made by yash raj productions is actually worth a watch, because they are usually original storylines… one if my faves is mohabbatein from 2002.
Used to be – last four in a row or something from them have been pretty uninteresting 😀 not as good as they used to be 😦
ohhhhh really?? 😦 yeah I stopped watching or following after probably 2008 or so…

Aren’t Kajol and SRK a bit too old for this mills and boons dross they keep spouting out?
I haven’t really been following their individual work rather than their work together in movies, so I can’t really say. But, yeah, SRK definitely made some bad choices over the past years. As far as Kajol goes I think she usually chooses her roles wisely. Or did you mean something else?
And I think there is really no age limit when it comes to romantic movies…
