100% Long Live Physical Media (of all kinds!)

@@HydraCollectables though legally we cant make a backup of non-interactive works. For software we are allowed to make a backup copy, though if the original no longer works can we make a backup of the backup copy?

@@joshallen128It’s more about sharing it on the internet that is illegal, personal backups are fine

Don't Forget LP's and Collector's Issue Magazines My Friend👍🙂

I've heard it said that if you don't have a physical copy of a movie, TV show or song, you don't have it. I tend to agree, which is why I'm right there with you.

This is a HUGE concern for me too! - Sadly we don't have many (legal) options to avoid losing this stuff forever...

While I am ethically opposed to media piracy, it might be the only route available to prevent the loss of older and/or more obscure productions. It calls to mind times when silent films that were thought to be lost are found because someone stole a print 8 years ago and hid it away.

It's also creating an era when majority tastes rule. Being into some niche sci-fi or horror sub-genre that was well-served in the DVD era is going to get harder, and it worries me re: LGBTQ+ content being vulnerable to censorship as well.

@@davidpumpkinsjr.5108 Yes, overall I too am against piracy. But when you hear about cases like the one you mentioned, its hard to disagree that it doesn't have some benefits to the broader picture.

The awful Willow show was pulled from Disney + as an insurance right off. I was able to get a blu Ray bootleg of the show in HD. If you want a hard copy of a streaming show, search online.

Exactly! I am right there with you! What will everyone else do should the power go out 🤷‍♂️

Same here 😎when internet is down im still watching my fav shows

Same here, I'm proud of my collection too and can watch it anytime I want. Instead of relying on an internet connection or subscribing to a service which only has a small percentage of stuff I actually want to watch.

Same here .

Same 19 old

Yep! This too has happened to me. Hopefully they learnt their lesson from the experience 🤷‍♂️

I know people who regret selling their Babylon 5 DVD set. And some series I like such as Babylon Berlin are hard to get on streaming services because of their political content (the series takes place in Germany between 1929-1931).

@@Lonovavir Psst. Filefactory.

Now my biggest problem with any type of things like DVD CDs Etc but especially DVDs is when it seems like every place they do this thing with with their discs where they want to have all these different kinds of holders and for some of them you have to bend the disc so badly to try to get it to pop off there that that you're actually ruining the disc because of the way that they that they make those things now one of the reasons that that they do them that way is because every single time that that whichever place is making them they want to make them differently so that they can have it as a thing where they have the rights to that kind of a DVD holder or Blu-ray holder and if anyone copies that then they can sue them well it's pretty stupid it's like why do you even need to do stuff like that. I saw somebody on online talking about it and they were talking about how for example is over 3,000 different types of caps for like sports things and that kind of stuff sports teams or whatever it is that somebody likes and every single one of them has a different type of latch on there and these people put put those as if as if somehow something like that if anyone dares to copy it just a little bit then they can sue them it's like no that's stupid why don't you just have one way of doing it why would anybody want want to say or you can't have the same kind of a latches what I have you have to make yours different

@@charliebrownie4158 So get a notebook and put your discs in there. That's what I did.

100% Agree!

I was 6, myself. That's when my parents bought their first VCR.

Buy one potentially shitty film for 30$. Compare that to one month of a streaming site for a third of that. Maybe it's not other people being sheep, like you suggest, but you being so closed minded that you don't realize how much of your time you're wasting to waste your time 🤷

Trust me its making a resurgence

When the internet collapses (and it will), physical media will be convenient. Don't stop buying physical media.

Great stuff. It's so nice to see 👍

I have hundreds of movies and TV shows on physical discs. Most of mine cost next to nothing to buy, too. I also have a few hundred that I backed up from my VHS tapes. A couple of those movies, such as a movie called "Control" (about a social experiment involving a nuclear bunker and a group of volunteers), don't even show up on sites like IMDB.

I'm still collecting BetaMax

cool

Here in N. Texas, you can buy all the DVD's you care to, for about .10 to .25 cents per title from individuals. Pawnshops sell them for around a buck each still. - I just boxed up about 500 titles and plan to drop half off at a nursing home and the other half to a women's shelter.

100% This! I too have a backup VCR just incase my main one breaks and cannot be fixed.

​@@HydraCollectablesI picked up a brand new (wrapped never used) Bush VCR925 recently for £10. The bloke in the shop obviously had no idea what they're worth - I wanted it for watching family CAMCORDER films shot in the 90s. I also have a good size DVD/BD collection - around 10,000 hours.

Me too! Still have 2 VCR's and all of my collection of VHS going back to 1987 when I began collecting films. Now in 2023 I have over 1400 VHS tapes (some extremely rare films), over 700 DVD's and DVD Box sets, and around 200 films on Blu-ray. Everything is catalogued and numbered on a database I created originally on MS Access back in 1996 on Windows NT4 Workstation!

@@sharonlovespink That's an impressive VHS collection. I started late 80s also (Dr Who, Star Trek etc) and built up a collection of about 800 titles - they just take up so much room and I was happy that I could gradually convert to DVD over time. Fond memories of car boot sales & 2nd hand shops to find that missing cassette to complete a full series.

@@sharonlovespink Me too .I have around 300 VHS and 2 VCRs. 1200 DVDS. Around 300 Blu rays only started collecting them end of 2019 they all just my horror movies. and got about 500 more movie's of different film genres. it's the owning it for me . I do watch odd free streaming channel like Plex TV but use that as ideas for films to buy . why pay loads of money every month to streaming channels when you can buy films and have your own movie library at home.its like going to video shop's in years gone by looking at my collection. imo there will always be physical media because streaming is unreliable and expensive.

This is so nice to hear 👌

I'd be crying too if I had to watch a standard definition DVD on a 4k or HDTV. Why buy a DVD player when you can get a blu-ray player or even a 4k player for not that much money?

@@my3dviews way to rain on the commenter's parade with a reply that doesn't even have anything to do with the point being expressed.

@@roberttoews2775 It's called an opinion. Deal with it.

Great to hear I am not alone! You're absolutely right, now is the time to buy 👍

Same here, I like my media unedited.

Smart. You got it figured out.

The second hand media stores in my area [the Phoenix valley, AZ] caught on real quick, games/books/movies/cds are priced as they're brand new. $10-20 for a cd for example

I 100% agree. Infact I'd go further still and say it is better to have all things in physical form: Movies, Music, Games and Books 💪👍

I’m more of a movie guy but I understand this. I have an Xbox series s and all of the games I “own” feel like rentals, I technically just own a white box and a controller. But with movies I have to have a physical copy, especially if there’s a steelbook or cool cover.

The only issue is that you only on the 1.0 ver. on the disc. Some games that’s fine enough but with a lot of games you’re missing entire components and essential patches. PS3 and 360 era was the last time the complete games were really on disc.

Pretty sure Project Cars 2 is no longer available on PlayStation store. Not sure if updates are available for the people who have physical copies - regrettably I sold mine a couple years ago.

@@KnightOfNewColu I switched to PC half because of this. I have a friend that's against digital games even though I told him that all the updates and DLC's won't be available in the future if you need to buy a new console

Love to hear this! Gives me hope that all is not lost! Thank you for reaching out!!!

@@HydraCollectables I don't mean to sound negative, but if I'm being honest I wouldn't get too hopeful if I were you, as my personal beliefs don't really reflect my generation, I have a tendency to hold all sorts of contrarian views that are unpopular among my generation, and unpopular in my country.

I suggest going to some thrift store for some good deals. Thrift store near me would sell Blu Rays for $2 each no matter what the movie was

You're not "outdated," and even so, who cares? You're showing sense and foresight, and a genuine passion for the art of film. People who collect appreciate the art, people who stream are just triflers who want "content."

@@johnnyjohn-johnson7738 that’s based on the concept that anything new is better, sometimes it is, sometimes it’s not. This is a not situation.

Very well informed and good preparation 👍 love to hear it!

"was amazed at how much content was no longer available or acceptable" I am fascinated by this statement. Could you elaborate on this?

Buy them while u can...its going to be over with time

I fear this is true...

I am just glad people like yourself are seeing what is happening and where this is headed. cheers@@HydraCollectables

Oh I am right there with you! I spend ages looking, only to settle on something old that I've seen so many times before

Agrees but i did geg alot of Great Movues and shows from Streaming wich i Bought Psychical haha Streaming for me is like a Catalouge if i Liked it i Buy it Psychical on Blu Ray are DVD if they dont have it in Blu Ray

One of the first times I noticed a movie being changed was in Encino Man; a scene where Brenden Fraser picks up Pauly Shore, spins him around, then slams him on the floor. Shore's line after getting slammed was, "ow, my pancreas!" Years later I bought a DVD copy of the movie, as I hadn't seen it in years. For some strange reason, that line was removed from the movie. It's bothered me ever since, because I know it was there.

I too still own a couple of VHS players and video tapes 👍

​@@chazzmccloud36Good to know, it's a classic and an old favourite though titled California man this side of the pond.

I have a working VHS player as well.I think I got it at Target in 1999.

I got a tube TV and VCR DVD combo! It's fun!

Great Stuff! Yeah there are some great bargains to be had!

Same with grocery stores! I found the full DVD box set of Arrested Development in a store bargain bin last year lol. Best purchase ever!

I found a few gems at dollar tree. One time one set came with a free Lego mini figure.

This statement actually interests me. Can you share the titles that you found to be hidden gems?

@@GaryAdame777 at dollar tree I found blu rays of robocop 1 and the crow 1. DVDs of Lego DC movies with Lego mini figure.

I too like having things on shelf. I feel it shows the people who visit who I am and I feel that's important.

I believe this will be a big reason moving forward for others to return to physical 👍

Great stuff! I've been doing the same!

Yep! I've even been picking up dvd (and sometimes Blurays) at 5 for £1. So cheap!

I'm right there with you!

I just don't understand why they haven't phased out DVD's yet for Blu Ray. I've been buying a lot more Blu Rays now that I have a drive for my PC, and I've upgrading some of my DVD's to Blu Ray and I might trade the DVD's for Blu Rays

@@finkamain1621 I agree. I prefer Blu-rays. I assume that there is still a market for DVDs.

@@finkamain1621 Some digital services allow you to pay less for renting/buying the SD version, or more for the HD version. It's the same thing here. Basically, if you don't want to spend much, you can get the DVD for less, or if you are willing to pay more for the best quality, you can get the more expensive UHD Blu-ray release. Personally, I don't think the price difference between a DVD and a Blu-ray justifies getting the former nowadays, but a lot of people already have either a DVD player or a computer with a DVD drive, so it's the more convenient choice, and probably the reason why DVDs still have a huge market. Between HD and UHD Blu-rays, it's debatable, since many 4K releases are digitally upscaled from 2K, with the only real improvements being HDR and lossless audio/Dolby Atmos, while still being significantly more expensive than the HD Blu-ray release. UHD releases usually include an HD disc, so that's good if you only have a standard Blu-ray player but still want to future-proof your collection (although it probably makes UHD releases more expensive).

Yep! I've done similar using my Physical Media and Nas Drive 👍

Yep. Everyone has been sucked in by convenience and has completely ignored the overall risk...

That's certainly a key factor for me also! Sound quality is so important in the cinema experience 👌

@@HydraCollectables for me home releases arent as tremendous as the cinema experience, when it comes to 4d /3d movies. Imax has those features that make going to the cinema worth it imho

I collect DVD Blu rays. I've notice movies been edited on Satellite services, for example the movie Cliffhanger, I've seen the re runs on satellite then notice some scenes were cut out, the young mtn. jumpers, until I bought a DVD recently and it reminded me, kinda surprise me that I would forget.

When I got my home theatre system for my Xbox One back in 2013, I then started collecting Blu Rays as well. I'd be in the basement sometime and the audio is such good quality that sometimes when nobody is home, I have to pause the movie during scenes to go look upstairs because I could swear I head someone else breaking in upstairs lmao. You never get that quality in a streaming service

There are no such thing as blu ray DVD

Great Stuff! She will appreciate this massively when she is older too!

Exactly! A very valid point 👏

right with DVDs you buy them once and watch them over and over anytime 24/7

Yep, I have some steelbooks too. Video coming soon on those! I'm so glad to hear that many others love their physical media as much as I do. Thanks for stopping by 👍

@@HydraCollectables thank you. It’s great to see another channel showing love for physical media. Just this week I was telling my partners family about my DVD and Blu Ray collection. They were shocked to find out I have over 3,000.

I agree 👍

Yep, sometimes bootlegs are the only way... There's so much older and more obscure stuff simply not available...

I did the same thing with hundreds of movies. It took me a couple of years to do them all, though. I still have about thirty VHS tapes of all sorts of weird bits from TV over the years. I bought an expensive analogue to digital converter to do the rest. It's better than my original method of using a DVD recorder, then editing them on the computer and burning them again, thus losing even more quality.

Does it take a long time to create your own DVDs?

Very wise 👌 Good job you listened to yourself about it!

❤👍

Yeah, I used to work in the FX industry and I am so happy I was able to buy and keep copies of the projects I worked on. I feel so sorry for the people out there now 😔

I can get hard copies of any streaming show or movie. You just gotta know where to look.

Not to mention it can be tricky replacing single discs from DVD box sets. This reminds me I need to replace one of my ATLA discs: the Zuko Alone episode got scratched somehow lol.

I 100% agree with this! Physcial media makes the viewing experience all the more special.

It's totally insane how quickly the world has turned on the medium in favour of streaming. I myself have found countless movies in charity shops and thrift stores. - Thanks for sharing what you have found 👍

Careful you don’t accidentally scavenge someone’s homemade xxx tape 😂

This is so nice to hear. Yeah, owning your favourite things makes it so much easier to enjoy. You get the best quality and you don't have to go searching for it.

I am so sorry to hear about your current situation. I hope it resolves soon! Libraries are so important for this and many other reasons. We must maintain and keep them!

I still have afew myself I have yet to watch but I fully intend to! Not always easy to set aside time mind... Thanks for stopping by and joining the conversation 👍

Yep! The removal of content whilst you are trying to watch it is a HUGE issue! I've been had a couple of times now...

Quality of the experience is truly key! Streaming is (for the most part) such a downgrade.

I too have found myself with multiple copies of the same movies, due to a difference in special features 😅👍

Yep! It's a scary place to be. I've had it happen too!

Which services went under? What kind of stuff/amount of stuff did you lose?

So nice to hear from others who feel the same way 👍 Thank you for stopping by 🙏

Yep. This is my greatest concern

Great to hear 👍🙌

I totally get what you mean. It's such a shame too, as there is so much behind the scenes stuff of a movie to share with audiences...

Yep, this is a factor rarely appreciated anymore. You used to be able to go to people's houses and get a feel for them based on what their dvd or cd collection was comprised of 👍

I'm very much the same. So nice to hear that others think and do similar to me 👌

I'm of the same opinion 👍

I cannot stress enough how much I agree with this! 100%

I agree. And this has always been my first reason for Collecting Physical Media 👍

not all of them will last forever... I have hundreds of dvds + blurays, and about 50 of them died because of the rotting issue. I am so upset with the distributors attitude (in Europe very few were replaced; even famous movies discs were not replaced, I had to buy them again in a new edition, and some even haven't been reissued in french language, like Slumdog Millionaire... With this issue, they lost many customers, the movies fans in France in particular didn't like this story at all, because dvds and blurays were advertised as very reliable, but it depends a lot of the resin origin... And 4k are not rot-free and so reliable! Since the data density is so high, they can fail too.

Yeah, it's crazy to think how fast these changes are made and how quickly some of this tech can pass us by. Thanks for sharing 🙏

I agree. For the most part Blu Ray trumps dvd. But every now and then, I do find the odd film not yet on bluray or worse... One that is but it's a really bad upscale/transfer

@@HydraCollectables Yeah I hear ya and a lot of those bad upscaled releases seemed to be more of an issue around the late 2000's going into the 2010's. It can be hard to figure out what's best when 4K's don't even look that great but I guess it comes down to who's handling them. Boutique labels spend time on the details while the big studio's really don't care that much.

I totally agree with what you are saying about not wanting to pay the extra. And your right, for the most part DVD does just fine 👌

Idk I disagree blu ray is miles better and it’s much crispier than streaming dvd is okay but what is the point of having an hdtv without using blu ray

Sharpe came out on blue ray recently so I happily bought that. Hornblower too. Hoping for North and South some day Good times 😊

Yes, for some films / shows I will go for extra blu ray (such as with the Professionals ... superb boxsets) but I am happy with DVD for most. Happy with the quality of the streaming services but there are also many cons with it (as well as pros as there are many films / shows I probably would never have watched)

@@32discodave good taste!

I agree. Great First Buy too! Thanks for stopping by 👍

@@HydraCollectables; Your Welcome

Great to hear 👍

Thank you so much for your kind words. Yes I agree. We have lost something with streaming. My kids and I watch movies on Physcial Media and there is a huge difference between watching stuff on streaming. It feels more special to sit down with case in hand and enjoying the whole process. Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to comment 🙏

Me too. Sometimes I enjoy these more than the movie itself. Always interesting stuff to learn. Especially as a wanna film maker

So glad to hear that they are still available to anyone who requires them. I assume it's the same here but I am unsure...

My local library in the UK still has many DVDs, hope that will continue

Great to hear you are continuing to support the one store you have left! Hopefully business continues to do well for them!

@@HydraCollectables It's a big electronics chain store in The Netherlands called Media markt ( dutch word for Market ). But it seems only their store in the city of Utrecht ( pretty much the middle point of the country ) still has a fairly descent physical media section since their other stores ( even bigger ones ) don't carry any physical media at all. In my own little hometown there are no stores at all that carry movies or music just a toy store that sells current video games.

Great stuff! Yeah ad free is a huge bonus 👍

I agree. Its so important to keep these types of media that would otherwise be lost to time. There's so much that doesn't get carried over to the new formats. Thanks for stopping by and joining the discussion 👍

@@HydraCollectables Completely agreed bro👊🏻And no prob!🔥

Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment. Yeah, too many times have I gone looking for a film and not found it. Which seems crazy given how many services I am subscribed to...

@@HydraCollectables actually it isn't dying... WB and HBO pissed off so many people. Batgirl film being a good example, also a lot of people buy Blu rays from HMV or ebay or Amazon. Because of this , so many people have turned to physical media. Also Blu rays look better then DVD but sometimes DVD menus are cool unlike some Blu ray start sceen menus

@@michaelhawkins7389so you don’t expect blu rays & dvds to disappear soon?

I need to invest in shelving here too... Already I have filled every space I currently have!

Exactly! The majority of these services are actually losing money. I imagine in the next few years. These studios will decide to continue with all forms and make money from as many avenues as possible. Streaming for the the "everyman" and physical for the collector 👍

Disney+ did exactly this. The annual cost for us in Europe was $89 for 2023. Now, the annual cost for 2024 is $120. That's a quite a steep rise. PS: In 2022, the annual cost was $69 (probably their "get as many as possible aboard" strategy). @thelastmelon9446 is spot on.

Oh yes! I have a couple of spare players in the loft, just incase 👍

Haha, same. I keep all my discs. Even when I have ripped them to my Nas. Might sound strange, but I like looking at them 😅👍

It sadly does, doesn't it 🙁

Yep! And sadly it is happening more and more...

I 100% agree. I love the extras that come on the discs. Usually its the deciding factor of me buying a new copy of the same film 😅

100%. I too love the older made for TV movies and thankfully have many on standard dvd 👍 It's so sad to think that all this might one day be lost

Great to hear you are getting your favourites back! I think it's so important to own what you love!

Yep! Exactly! Saves so much time when you know you can just put on the disc 👍

I agree. It doesn't appear to be one blanket rule for all. Some upscale rather well.

I agree that these things are important but unfortunately many others disagree with us 🤷‍♂️

Amazing collection numbers 👍

Thank you for taking the time to watch (and comment) It means alot! Yeah I collect a lot of stuff, including but not limited to Toys, Comics and Physical Media! And I do plan on making videos about all three! So please don't ever be put off, if you see a couple of videos that aren't for you. As I'm sure it won't be too long before I do another you are interested in 🤞👍 - I too am very intrigued by the streaming wars and wonder what the final outcome will be... More videos and topics coming soon, I'm sure! 😉👍

Looking forward to it ! I like your style ! 🙂

I'm after the TMNT boxsets myself 🍕🐢👍

Yep, the searching across platforms drives me mad too. So much simpler having a disc!

Love hearing this. My 7yr old is now following in my footsteps and using music cds and dvds.

Yeah, I'm starting to notice alot of old VHS releases that didn't make it to DVD 😭 So sad they could be lost in afew years...

I wish that tape media was viable as a long-term backup. There's a lot of titles that I loved that never made it to disc. Tape just isn't very durable, especially in hotter, drier climates. It crumbles and breaks down. The only way you can really store tape long-term is if you own a climate-controlled vault. A lot of discs have the same problem. DVDs break down pretty quickly in my climate, unless they were made to the utmost standards. Even a lot of cheaply made BDs have durability problems.

Thanks bud and yeah I agree. Hard to beat DVD and Blurays.

Thank you fot stopping by 👍

I totally get the cost saving and I too use streaming alongside physical. However when you notice a difference in something you fondly remember its extremely jarring!

One of my favourite things used to be looking at friends movie collections. You immediately understood who they were the moment you saw what films they owned 😅👍

Great stuff! I'm very much the same!

Yep! That's the other problem with streaming. No extras!

I watched "Aliens" with director's commentary more than once. I never noticed certain shots were false perspective special FX for instance. Oh the glory days when James Cameron still made good movies 😊. I only wish he had released "The Abyss" on blu-ray because my old DVD has really bad resolution. Not that great of a picture on my projector. Same is true for the Star Wars limited edition with the old versions on them (the only way to watch Star Wars) - low res pic.

It's funny you should say this. I am currently working on a follow up video where I will be discussing something similar. Thanks for stopping by and sharing 👍

Meanwhile every video game console generation....

Yep. Always good to have options in case out outages of any kind. I even have a portable player with batteries 👍

Yep. I actually carry a tiny USB stick (as in smaller than usual) with me to work, so I can watch TV shows and movies on my tablet. Whenever there's a power failure at night, I can still watch stuff or play games. That's not to say I'm addicted to technology. I have hundreds of books too.

Thank you for stopping by 🙏

Yeah unfortunately, as with most formats. They have a shelf life. I too have been backing up my discs onto a Nas Drive just incase.

Sometimes it might be the player at fault however. I once bought a "Philips" DVD player who wouldn't play a few DVDs straight out of the box. Returned it and the new one worked just fine. The store clerk revealed to me that about 60 % of that particular model were returned as they were faulty. No more Philips for me except a Philishave. Also - I had two Samsung blu-ray players which both failed shortly after the warranty expired. Never had an issue with Samsung TVs and monitors though. Some companies just suck with certain products and are great with others. One of the best items I ever bought is my "Made in Korea" LG PH450UG short distance front projector. I got it since 2017 and use it for hours each night to watch movies or play Xbox. No 4K but I don't really need it. Full HD is more than good enough for me.

Yep! And they never announce when they do it, so most won't know or realise until its too late!

Great to hear 💪👍

Good stuff! Yeah Books are another thing we must keep physical copies of!

Great Stuff! 💪👍

Absolutely! You can tell alot about a person from their physical media collection. Whether it be music, movies or books.

Yeah, unfortunately if you are hunting for those rarer more unique titles you do tend to pay a premium. However, once you own it. You are done 👍

I feel these increases were always the plan. The idea of alot of these services just didn't sound profitable. Its the equivalent of a dealer getting you hooked on a supply with a freebie. Then jacking up the price. Sadly alot of people are now hooked and won't leave/go back.

@@HydraCollectables The price increase was the plan. It was also to limit physical media and phase it out. Disney just did this with Australia . People forget the early days of VHS/ Beta Max no studios wanted anything to do with it. They wanted full control of all the content. Independent companies like Troma later Full Moon were built on physical media. The problem is streaming didn't take off like the studios thought so they are just doing what cable did raise the Price. They lost the war on piracy and the bootleg copies are often better then what the studios put out. It's why people pay a premium to boutique labels now. It's quality the big studios won't give them. when my box set of gravity Falls came from Shout Factory and not Disney. I knew it's a race to grab stuff now before it's locked away. The only thing that will change this is possible desperation for money from the studios. Everyone on the studios side is worried the strikes, inflation, buyouts ECT. Time will tell.

@@twk8520 I 100% agree, the boutiques are where buyers should be looking. Sadly however I don't think many outside of us enthusiasts, know where to look...

Yeah, 4k is a difficult sell for me. Having already upgraded my core collection three times (VHS, DVD and Bluray) It's hard to start again... I am very much the same though. I will keep a dvd if it proves better than the bluray. Either because of bonus features or because its all we ever got.

@@HydraCollectables It’s the transfers of some of the movies I’ve seen like Batman and T2, they seem obsessed with adding teal to everything and screwing up the colour grading.
