Wow that looks amazing. How does one get a copy? Asking for a friend. Lol. I know I may have asked before but I’m not really tech savoy as most folks.

Subs from the Navajo DVD:

Subs reconstructed using DeEd, Project Threepio and a little Photoshop:

Navajo text with 1977 theatrical styling – what’s not to like about that?

Well, that’s just a mock-up. I have the subtitles (and the subtitles alone), and I Photoshopped them over a still image from the film. Working them into real video is a wee bit more work, and that’s what Rikter is proposing. As long as he can get the subtitle-free video (which exists – Harmy made the version that Krieg der Sterne is based on), then the video is doable. But I believe he also wants to render a Navajo crawl as well. So getting a copy of the video is still quite some time and quite some work away.
