Looking forward to a V2. I’m not sure what your source is, perhaps the BluRay or iTunes version or something, but I encourage exporting at the maximum settings that make any sort of sense, if you haven’t already.
I’m planning to tweak your edit just slightly by restoring the original opening style and the “we’ll have you flying in no time” gag, just for personal, non-shared enjoyment.
Thanks for the response Hal! V2 is done and available through the usual chain. The source is the Blu Ray but I usually encode it at ~16mbps which makes the file around 15gb in size. I tried a 25gb file for RotR, but had issues with DVD architect messing up the audio (it can’t make a disc with 5.1 for some reason…) and I’ve been shy of requiring such a big download file after the issue. I suppose I shouldn’t as the file could have easily been demuxed and then muxed with the corrected audio file. Ha, I should just do that *face palm. Anyway, I’ve got a few projects I’m working on and life is running full board right now, but I’ll see if I can get a larger render going during the Christmas holiday season when I have a bit more time and set up a larger render for the spleen.
Feel free to use the file as a base for any project. You always do amazing work and I’d be honored to have any bit of influence on your edits. Thanks for reaching out! 😃
