The french LD would need a slight sharpening filter and color correction, but thats all.

There is a massive amount of 'introduced sharpening in that Definitive grab, I don't know where it is being introduced, but that is not how it is on my Definitive laserdiscs. (see my comments in the X0 thread).

This is a cropped grab from Dr Gonzo's discs:

it exhibits the same jagged edges/lines as what I'm seeing on my set, my laserdisc player is a Pioneer CLD-D515, capturing with a Canopus ADVC-100, I get the same jaggies if I capture with my Matrox G450 gfx/tv card (see back a few posts). None of the other 30 or so NTSC laserdiscs I have exhibit the same jaggies as the SW definitive set.

Can you post the same still from your capture of the definitive set?

But they are unfortunately missing those frames from ANH at the end of side 1/start of side 2.

what frames are you talking about? (on the THX edition from 1995?)

It are (It think 24) frames which contain the wipe from the shot on which Obi-Wan and Luke lift 3PO to the shot of Obi-Wan's home.

It's missing on the French spoken and The English spoken French subtitled PAL version of the 1995 THX releases.

A new release of Star Wars is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.
