Yeah looked at two versions and not noticing anything out of the ordinary.  Same slight jittering, which is all over the home video releases.  But after the Stormtroopers come in is another slight rip or mark. (thru the helmet)

Burtt may explain the scene, in this manner, as that's how most people would remember it.  If you said Tantive to most people it wouldn't register, but the first sight of the Stormtroopers is something most people would recall.  But yes he could just have said first appearance of 3po and R2.  Not sure, but from the story, there was a whole bunch of film lying on the floor.

A second thought, how did they achieve the initial shaky camera effect.  As it doesn't change (at all?) between releases going with the idea that it was done on set, just hit the camera guy.  But is there a chance the effect was done in post?

(from the .nfo)

This is a transfer of the 1982 Star Wars "Video Rental Library" videocassette. This VHS tape was the first ever commercial home video release of Star Wars. It features a full screen pan and scan transfer along with the original 1977 Dolby Stereo sound mix.

Aluminum Falcon, would you happen to know what those cut off characters said?

Do you have a recording of that?  Could post some pics.

 

Updated: http://fd.noneinc.com/Glitch/starwars-tantiveorangeerrors/starwars-tantiveorangeerrors.html

Added second 1977 Starkiller pic, 1982 CED Starkiller, 1986 LD Japan Special Collection Arnie.d, 1993 Full Screen & 1996 Widescreen TV SciFi Broadcasts pics.

So the 82 CED, 86 LDJapan and 82UKTV are all possible candidates for Not having the orange errors?  Seems as if the other 82's Starkiller's LD and Library versions also appear orange error free.  If we concur, i'll create a new category color code for these.

What's people's opinion of the 1995 Faces Full Screen?  In the 1995 Widescreen it's noticeable, but less so in the Full Screen.

 

Just weird but looking at the OrangeA pics, 3po looks mad.  Something about the shadows and the dome glow...

Haven't seen that Widescreen Review article, will see if maybe through multiple pages the full article could be found.

on the webpage, anyone having issues with the format, is this a good presentation method?  tried to get the OrangeA/B images centered upon themselves, but then it screwed up another aspect, they wouldn't show full size, they'd get cropped by the frame.  Seeing if there's a different way of create the same effect.
