OK guys, quick funding update. We so far have pledges from: cpalmer2k, alexp120, Beber, Roobee, and Papai2013. You guys are the best - with a bit more we can get this scanned very soon and then get a good quality release out I would say well before the end of the year. Given what we have seen I am planning on just fixing the green perf damage lines, and frames we find with heavy dirt.

How many channels does the optical track have? That is what should be kept in the release, “as is.”

It has TL and TR. The issue is that it’s an analogue format that I’m not sure is really designed for digital? I know in other 35mm release people just leave the Dolby SR tracks as 2.0 - but do they decode correctly in a home theatre? This I don’t know partly because I don’t have a home theatre with surround sound in which to check.
