this kind of stinks,i have to wait 48hrs to download my own torrent LOL
but from the samples i have seen, Rikter did a KICK ASS job on the menus and extras,I like it very much.

well the extras that i added are the SE trailers for each film and the making of the SE from the LD set,and Rikter added some VERY nice goodies too.

REALLY weird how there is another seed on myspleen for this DVD when I'm the ONLY person in the galaxy with this DVD - whoever is "helping seed" PLEASE drop your seed YOU DO NOT HAVE this DVD and cannot PROSSIBLY be seeding the same DVD!!!

You may cause playback errors for EVERYONE....

I'm very sorry that the last torrent was deleted but there was a seeder with an INCORRECT file that corrupted the last torrent!!!!!

GREAZZYG or greazzyg - PLEASE do not ATTEMPT to seed this DVD UNTIL you FULLY download the files I've uploaded!!!

NO ONE has this version of the DVD...

So it will BE IMPOSSIBLE for you to help the INITAL seed as this is VERSION 9 NOT the same V.4 DVD that Dark Jedi has.

AGAIN this is VERSION 9 and I'm the only person in the GALAXY with this DVD at this time....

SO, SO, SO, sorry about this gang. SO if you started to DL this torrent please just STOP the torrent and DL the latest torrent file IT WILL preserve your original files so you will not need to start over.

how could he even seed it? wouldnt it have failed the hash check and went into downloading it?

I think he had a copy of V.4 VERY VERY minor differance in the menu - I'm not sure how but this morning when I wook up there were 2 seeds and he had uploaded like 400mb

I've looked at downloading this, but I noticed that it is an ISO image over 4 gb. Since I'm still on 98, I can't use it. Can someone send me a copy? I'll pay for any reasonable costs...

Thanks!

DJ,

The transfer you did looks really good. Of course, the video quality isn't as good as the 2004 DVDs, but you work with what you got, right? (Maybe we should petition Lucas to give us access to the original or SE prints...)

I do have a couple complaints though.
1. The "Letter to Mr. Lucas" and the "Ralph McQuarrie Gallery" are videos. Well, them being videos is fine, but at least, please put in chapter points for each page of the letter and each picture in the gallery. That way, if we can read faster than the video, we won't have to wait.
2. There is no menu button functionality programmed into any of the videos, including the movie. Hitting the "Top Menu" button works, but that's hard coded into the DVD player. Say, in Adobe Encore, you can specify which menu you want to send the user once they hit the Menu button. You can customize this based on which video the user is currently viewing.

So, my final verdict is: Transfer is great, the way the disc is set up (menus & chapter points in the videos other than the movie) could use a little work.

Thanks again for posting it!

yes thank you for the compliment,i did not do any of the menus or the extras on this disc just the movie capture and encode,i am sure Rikter will read this when he gets time,he is the one that did all the extra stuff,i would have done it but unfortunately my menus are very very basic,but at least they have sound.
i am in the process of learning how to do better menus, and chapter stops and chapter selection,and also to make my own case a dvd art,and i will be learning from one our own OT members right here,MR boba Feta,he has also done a real nice job on some projects we did together,and hopefully we will do another project together if i can convince him,the Star Wars Trilogy in fullscreen(and yes it is the o-ot)
if you want to know more about it,here is some good reading started by ocpmovie:

Hey gang just an BIG update from me...

Sadly and on my account I've just stepped away from this project...

This has been a frustrating project for me and it really should not have been but I've been very distracted with some serious personal family issues the last few weeks. That and the video on Jedi is 352x480, and all the materials I did were for 720x480 and I've since deleted all my source files for the letter,music video and the extras DOH!!!!!!!! It had taken me 3 days to get it all together and a few convert it all (The music video, letter and credits were all encoded frame by frame from Photoshop to TMPGEnc) and I didn't save any of the files!!!!!!!! DANG IT!

Dark Jedi - I'm VERY sorry about this but Boba Feta has a very HOT version of this set and I think that my version of STAR WARS SE sould just be scratched and we should release the Boba Feta set in it's place...


(I may finish this set after my break and once I get all the stuff reconverted as both ANH and ESB are done)

ROTJ was a problem on my end,bob feta had the same problem,i am currently capturing and encoding ROTJ again,I know where i messed up,i was not paying attention but IT WILL BE CORRECTED AND ENCODED WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS,sorry about this, it was my fault,and i did save all my extra files LOL.

Is the discs being made by Boba Feta going to have the same look and feel as the one Rikter did?
Author
Time
not at all these look different,so you will have to start over if you want them to match,and all the movies already has case and disc art.
hope this helps,but we are re-doing ROTJ for the above reasons,it just needs the menus from boba and it will be ready.

just a small update,i do have all dvd's ready to go from boba feta with cover and disc art,except for ROTJ,he is just waiting on me to get it in the mail to him,and he is real fast on his turnaround time so the set will be complete with all extras real soon.(4 disc set)
but we will run into 1small problem,neither of us can torrent,so if someone can PM me maybe i can send some sets out so someone else can torrent at myspleen for everyone.
hope this helps,and the set does look pretty darn good
DJ
also this set is the Jedi/Feta set,you can see the logo on the pic boba posted above in the lower left hand corner.
