The specific title refers to a high-definition re-release of a classic adult performance by actress Allie Haze. Originally filmed in early 2010 for the Naughty Bookworms series under the La Touraine production house, this remastered version was updated in July 2024 to meet modern visual standards. Scene Overview and Context
For those tracking specific releases within the Naughty Bookworms catalog, this 2024 update is part of a broader trend of archiving "classic" adult cinema for the digital streaming era. NaughtyBookworms 22 07 24 Allie Haze REMASTERED...
Upscaling the original footage to 1080p or 4K. The specific title refers to a high-definition re-release
The "Naughty Bookworms" series is built on a popular library-themed roleplay trope. In this specific installment, Allie Haze —a well-known figure in the industry recognized for her girl-next-door aesthetic—plays a studious character whose academic focus is interrupted by a male lead (Mikey Butders). January 4, 2010. Remaster Date: July 24, 2024. Cast: Allie Haze and Mikey Butders. Upscaling the original footage to 1080p or 4K
A library/study hall environment typical of the series' branding. Why the Remaster Matters
Cleaning up background noise for clearer dialogue. Allie Haze's Career Highlights
The adult industry frequently updates popular older content through "remastering" to appeal to users with 4K monitors and high-speed connections. The July 2024 update for this Allie Haze scene likely includes:
Detail when you need it. Unlike other mainstream GPU codecs, NotchLC uses variable block size and variable control point bit levels to provide extra detail while allowing greater compression in areas of flatter colours.
NotchLC breaks colour data down into luma and chroma (YUV). 12bits of depth are assigned to luma data, as in many scenarios this is where bit depth is most perceivable. 8bits are assigned to each of the U & V channels.
Rather than specify target bitrates and end up with undetermined quality outcomes, NotchLC takes the reverse approach: during encoding you set a quality level, and the encoder uses the most compression it can while preserving it.
Utilising the modern SSIM measurement method, NotchLC delivers the high-quality results that are needed to be qualified as an intermediary codec. Don’t take our word for it though — read what dandelion + burdock writes in their big, independent 10bit codec test.

Talk to any content creator about codecs and you’ll find encoding times, right at the top of the list of concerns. NotchLC utilises the full power of the GPU to massively accelerate the encoding process.
NotchLC utilises the full power of the GPU to massively accelerate the encoding process. On a consumer PC, encoding can be up to 5.7x faster than realtime at 1080p24. As an example, we encoded the Open Source movie “Big Buck Bunny” (duration 09:57) in just 1 min and 44 secs.
In a CPU codec, the CPU decodes the image and sends the huge raw frames up to the GPU. The secret sauce of a GPU codec is that compressed frames are uploaded and the GPU does the decode. The compressed frames are much smaller in size allowing vastly more video to be passed through the PCI-e bus.
Typically you will see compression ratios of around 5:1 on motion graphics content when compared to raw video. You’ll be able to dial in your final file size by using the encoder’s Quality Level (see the manual).
