Thanks! It's my favorite of the three.

And yeah, if anyone wants to dummy up a compatible X0 logo, go for it.


I personally preferred the ROJ cover myself, although the ESB is good! The New Hope cover doesn't do it for me. The composition is cramped and somewhat off putting, and the Tantive IV in the background is teeny tiny. Maybe you could use a shot of the two suns that Luke looks at? Like this one?


Move the suns above him so you get the vertical look. I dunno, maybe that would look weird.

What’s the internal temperature of a TaunTaun? Luke warm.

What do you need, guys?
You have the raw captures from X0 right - but what about all the other sources that went into the total process?

Sounds like you might need to reset back a few steps...

Has there been any talk of a X0 set supplementary disc? There's a fair amount of unique to laserdisc Star Wars bonus material, that likely wouldn't need nearly as much attention as the actual films do post-capture.

It would be great to get X0 captures of the documentaries, interviews, and unique features on the Definitive set, Faces set, SE set, and the unique to laserdisc documentary releases for each film.

AH, OK - I thought all the capturing had been done, and the films were well into clean-up/remastering, thus freeing up the X0 playing for other captures. What stage of the project are you guys on?

Well, unfortunately, it's not our X0 player, and it's not even on this continent. We had to ship materials to the owner.

I wouldn't worry about the bonus materials as much. IIRC, LFL already shipped in and did digital captures of their making of and bts footage. If LFL releases it ever, we won't have to worry about them cutting up the original negatives and doing ridiculous color "corrections".

True, a lot of the bonus material on the altered DVD has beautiful clips of OOT.
Which of course always had me scratching my head.

What do you mean? I have read all this thread and have been reading this forum for a few years.

Since Laserman will probably not be able to finish the work, Zion may have to do it instead. (That is if they want to continue - understandable if not).

Hey guys. I'm not dead yet!
I have spent nearly all of this time constantly in and out of hospital and will be going back in for treatment again in about a weeks time. If all goes well I will be back home before Christmas, if all goes really well, I may be able to start contributing to the X0 team again by then, but I really don't know at this stage.
I only managed to get back in contact with the team last night, and haven't logged on here since I left, so have no idea where everything is currently at.
Thanks for all the well wishes, I will post here again once I (hopefully) get back home again.

It's good to hear that you're still alive Laserman; as a newbie (still), I can't say that I know you; however, I've seen your contributions and they seem to be great ones to the community.

The only thing that could possibly make me happier than hearing the X0 project is finished... glad to hear from you Laserman. Get well soon.
