Aren't the Puggo Editions (not Puggo Grande) the abridged 8mm ones?

Thanks to Althor1138 for updating a new version of this:
Size: 22.50 GB (24,155,816,289 bytes)

Thanks to all involved with this.

I’ve taken the raw files and tried to improve a few things with them.

*Removed duplicate frames from reel1
*gout-synced all the reels into 1 file
*tried to set better b/w points, improve contrast
*increased saturation
*There was AN ATTEMPT to color correct to the PRINT ITSELF.
*included the 1977 mono and stereo dts tracks from Harmy’s Despecialized.

The encode should be blu-ray compatible. I’ve encoded at such a high bitrate to help retain grain. All colors and levels adjustments are a single pass correction.

I’ve also included the avisynth script used to create this so if you have the raw files that were available awhile back then you could recreate this or try to improve upon it.

This can be found on the usual sharing site (Myspleen).

Did you ask Puggo about doing this first? If only out of common courtesy…

What does Puggo have to do with this? The raw files were made available to the public by Antcufaalb and Poita. If anybody wants recognition or feels that I forgot to mention them by all means let me know and I’ll give it.

Luke threw twice…maybe.

My bad. I was thinking of Puggo’s Super 8 project.

Is there any plans from “the other side” for Proper Preservation?

From Star Wars Super 8mm Grindhouse
Corrections : Added in missing scene after 2nd reel, with 35mm LPP scan.

That didn’t work at all.

Is it changed and what is used?
In first scan this scene was just missing on the HDDs and I don’t know did he rescan whole film.
But is this missing scene ever rescanned and archived?

Are you asking about tn1’s release?

No. I asked what is done in your version.

The footage was never rescanned and I have no idea if there are plans to do that but I doubt it. I have nothing to do with the scan at all. I’m just a guy that downloaded the raw files and decided to sync them to the gout.

I used upscaled gout footage and I made no attempt to make it blend in with the surrounding footage. It’s there as sort of a placeholder, plus it gives you an idea of the difference between the super8mm and the gout. It happens in the middle of the shot where luke is about to run out of the hut with his binoculars to look for r2 and ends right as luke gets attacked by the tusken raider.

Luke threw twice…maybe.

Don’t worry Poita, it will all work out eventually. There’s a lot going on, so no rush.

Hello, has a full 8mm version been released?
Sorry, I don’t have myspleen to check if it exists.
But screenshots of the super 8 version look fantastic …
