I use Alt.binz and I usually let them download overnight so I can use my pc during the day. I also try not to have anything else running when doing so to maximize the time. I’ve never had any issues with resources when doing it this way.

I’ll see what I can do, then.

So … I guess nobody plans to upload them to myspleen or anywhere else for all of us non-usenet people?

If you go through the motions and get them pre-approved on the spleen I’ll up the .ts files.

EDIT: I only have 1-6. It would end up being just under 90GB.

Luke threw twice…maybe.

I have all the films, so if althor1138 puts up the first six, I can put up the last three.

Honestly though, it’s pretty damn easy and inexpensive to get them off Usenet. If I could get all nine films, you certainly can.

I agree, though I’m not discouraging anyone from sharing them another way, of course! It’s not clear that myspleen will permit it, but they might. Once we get to the point where these are no longer on usenet I’ll probably get more involved in making sure they’re preserved.

As for the question of which software I used, SAB is the answer. Haven’t had any issues with it killing my computer or anything.

I saw a handful of the old SE DVDs in my local shop today and it got me thinking about Trek again.

From what I understand and correct me if I’m wrong, The original series is essentially theatrical 35mm audio on LD and 5.1 supposedly from 70mm runs for DVD. TNG films have reference LD transfers of the first three, initial DVD ports of these as letterbox and then SE reissues with cleaned up anamorphic transfers and added DTS audio.

Has anybody ever sat down and done comparisons with LD, DVD and BD? I can understand the video differences but there is very little out there about any audio quality differences in regards to remixing and dynamic range reduction. I have the first two TNG LDs and will check those out soon.
I’m thinking about getting the TNG BD set. If I have this, the original crew BD and LDs, is there anything I’d be missing other than the director’s cut of TMP?

The Director’s Edition of TWoK and the Special Edition of TUC have a few additional scenes.
And the TNG Blu-ray sets are worth their price. 😃

The current Director’s Cut Blu-ray disc release for STAR TREK II: The Wrath of Khan is still the best looking out of the TOS films since it received a full 4K restoration. Original color timing too.

Could anyone help advise if these HDTV captures are still currently available anywhere?

I’ve been meaning to obtain them for a long time, as I find the Blu-rays with DNR to be basically unwatchable.

I’d love to get TMP and III through Insurrection, if possible.
