Just go to the Audio tab in Handbrake and click Add Track>Add All Remaining Tracks for each vid. It can even preserve multiple audio tracks (which most/all future videos will have, in the form of the music toggle).

If you go with the latter, Handbrake is an amazing video encoder (in fact it's what I used for these cutscenes). If this is the case you'd either need to upgrade your software, find a plug-in that fixes it, or re-encode the videos to H264. If your video editing software is on the older side (more than 5 years old) it may not support them. I highly recommend using VLC Player for viewing purposes. Unfortunately this makes them a bit less compatible. The H265 codec uses a more complex form of compression, which gives us a massive boost in quality without having unreasonably large files (though don't get me wrong: they're still 3-4 times larger than our 1080p vids). 4K resolution is a huge part of that, but we've also moved on to a new video codec. From here on, our focus is on high-end videos with the absolute clearest quality.

I'm particularly excited about this release as it's a bit of a turning point for us. Kingdom Hearts Cutscenes (4K)(no subtitles)(music toggle) Apologies for the inconvenience, but I promise they're worth it ) You can download these absolutely stunning scenes here:

You will have to download each individually. Meaning the overall quality should be higher than in the actual game!ĭue to the larger file size of these vids, we couldn't include the option to download all of them at once. And I personally created a mod to Disable Subtitles.Īnd finally, the pre-rendered Opening, Ending, and Secret Endings have all been upscaled to 4K using machine learning software (Topaz A.I. Also of note, the music toggle was made possible by TopazTK's Re-Fixed mod by allowing the game's volume sliders to fully mute the BGM when set to 1). I used the HD Textures mod by TieuLink to make things look even crisper, and the Vanilla Heartless mod by DaniZaya to restore the Heartless to their original, non-Final Mix color palette.

And with fortuitous, only slightly delayed timing, I just finished my most recent project: Kingdom Hearts Final Mix cutscenes in 4K! Just like our recent 358/2 Days and ReCoded releases, they have some really cool features: no subtitles, and an additional audio track that has the background music turned off, so you can isolate the dialog/sound effects.Īnd since this was captured from the PC release I took advantage of a couple texture mods. Two days ago marked the 19th anniversary of the original Kingdom Hearts game's release in North America.
