Hey folks, I have sadly had no luck at all downloading this. I've tried various browsers, and JDownloader, and it always crashes about a third of the way through.

So, is there anyone here in the U.S. who might be willing to make a copy for me (the HD version), if I send a USB hard drive?

Hi Puggo, let me know if you've had no luck by Saturday. I may be able to set up a temporary ftp account to my home network to share this with you.

My upload speed is around 1MB/s so at top speed it could take a little over 2 hours to grab.

Can't prmoise anything as it's been a while since I've set up an ftp server but I'm happy to try.

I've used astraweb and supernews (giganews reseller) with no luck. I'll give them a shot. Thanks.

I've managed to get all my rar's to pass the checks in QuickPar after a lot of re-downloading of files. Anyway, do you have a rapidshare, netload or megaupload account?

I'm happy to upload a few files for you if this will help you although it may take a little while due to my poor upload speed!

Let me know.
Andy

Whoa, things seem to be getting very technical (at least for me anyway). Still, there's a lot of very informative things being discussed which I'm sure will be of help me and others looking to attempt our own captures.

I've been offered a HLD-X9 for about £1000 + shipping but am going to try to hold out for an X0. Assuming I can get one and can then use the s-video output, do you thing this card will be a good choice bearing in mind what has recently been discussed. It says it can capture uncompressed and lossless video and has filtering and noise reduction technology for analog input amongst other things.

Sorry to ask you to keep looking at card specs, but as always appreciate any advice you guys can offer.

Like I said I have a lot to learn and appreciate all the advice and recommendations you guys can send my way.

Following Karyudo's advice I've almost ruled out the canopus advc-300. Instead I am considerring the Sweetspot (PDI Deluxe) car or maybe the more expensive MPEGPRO card from canopus. As I don't know too much about video cards does the spec of this card look up to the job (I'd hope so bearing in mid the cost!)

Yeah i know the purchase of an X0 or X9 would set me back a small fortune! Any idea what you'd think would be a decent price on these machines?

I actually live in England so will probably be hit with big import duties, but hey what the hell

Thanks for all your comments. I have just taken delivery of the CLD-99 and the Definitive Collection set. Tomorrow I should also receive a CLD-2950 with the Faces trilogy.... all in all it's been an expensive last week or so

I may attempt to make my own LD capture and am considering either a Canopus ADVC-300 or Sweetspot card. After that it should be all plain sailing (yeah right, IVTC this and remove 3:2 that... sounds like I have a lot to learn!).

A guy I have been talking to in Japan has mentioned there's a small chance he may be able to get hold of an HLD-X0 or X9. He has a couple of LD-S9's available but i'd prefer one of the X models. What would you guys expect to be a fair price for the X0 or X9?

Again, I appreciate any comments or suggestins you can offer.

Sorry I meant the 1995 faces set. I heard the 1993 DC edition suffers from too much noise reduction especially on episode IV.

This is the first post from a long time lurker here. I'd like to say thanks to everyone involved here for providing a great site and some excellent discs. I've been lucky enough to obtain copies of the TR47 and Editdroid sets and have been delighted with these.

In my quest to obtain the best picture quality for the original trilogy I am now considering purchasing a laserdsic player and a copy of the 1993 Faces set (probably NTSC version).

I presently have the option of aquiring a Pioneer CLD925 or Pioneer Elite CLD99 laserdisc player. As I have little knowledge of LD players, are these wise purchases and am I likely to get a better quality of picture than what I already have on the above mentioed DVD's.

I am currently running on a Panasonic 42" Plasma and watch these DVD's in zoom mode.

I thank you for taking the time to read this and look forward to any advice you guys can offer.
