**Title**: Cowboy Bebop (Season 1)
HEVC 10bit SoftSubbed - 1440 x 1080
Encoded by: EoE
**Source**: [JySzE](https://nyaa.si/view/1492120) (210 GiB)
**Audio**: Japanese - English
**Subtitles**: English [Full - Signs/Songs] (CBM/JySzE) - Italian - English [Dubtitles]
**V2 Note**: V2 because some episodes got broken during the muxing process, and unfortunately (due to the fact that EoE is a bad encoder), weren't caught before release. These are fixable using [the patch script](LINK HERE).
Because of the goldmine of comments on the original release, I'm leaving it up (but hidden), [here](https://nyaa.si/view/1524120)
**Original Note**: Did someone say ***BLOAT***? Yeah I kind of threw shit at the wall and let this have crf 18. Worked mostly fine for the majority of episodes, except for a couple which ended up absolutely massive that were redone with crf 19 for a minor filesize reduction. All episodes other than 23 were encoded with the same [script](https://github.com/End-of-Eternity/Encoding-Projects/blob/master/Cowboy%20Bebop/Bebop.vpy), which has commented explanations throughout, but the general gist of it is using a strong cmde + bilateral as a prefilter to bm3d, followed by a weaker cmde merged back into the bm3d clip using an adg based brightness mask. I only added grain with placebo.Deband as I liked the effect more than adaptive_grain here, plus it compresses minorly better. Episode 23 was encoded using a [custom script](https://github.com/End-of-Eternity/Encoding-Projects/blob/master/Cowboy%20Bebop/Bebop_23.vpy) which is far too complex to explain here, and therefore ~~will have a dedicated blog post soon (probably tonight)~~ you can read about it [on my blog](https://blog.eoe.codes/my%20vapoursynth%20scripts/2022/05/06/cowboy-bebop-S01E23.html) (About 12 hours late but nvm). I will also post some comparison frames on slow pics and leave a link here later. Project was fun, should really have done this sooner. Cheers, EoE
