A plan: Despecialization. We know it can be done. Now the question is... Can Molly do it?

Thanks, poita. šŸ˜ƒ And since I know youā€™re working on the 97SE of ANH, Iā€™ll take you up on that - it might be the first we see of the 97SE in HD. (This is the version I saw in cinema, so it does hold some special place for me even though I prefer the pre-SE.)

Iā€™m actually considering whether it would be worth working at full BD resolution for this one. I think thatā€™s about 1920x820. Thatā€™s all Iā€™d probably need - but Iā€™ll probably take a little at a time, and keep the rest stored elsewhere (my friend has much more disk space than I do).

I think the next thing I need to do is get the actual BD (the latest version I have legit is the 06 DVD for ANH and 04 for all; for now, Iā€™m using WOWOW rips, and can plug in the BD later).

Iā€™m in no rush - kinda waiting on 4K77 to be my source for original unmodified footage anyway.

ETA: Most likely Iā€™ll work in short bits, scene by scene, and first learn my enemy by putting the different versions side by side. Then when Iā€™ve decided what to do, Iā€™ll write it into the final code. With the flip of a switch I might be able to create a full despecialization or a 97SE despecialization.
