v2.2 1080p has been posted to the usual place. 2160p is rendering and will be available in a few days or so.

v2.2 changes…

This release is to improve the quality of many shots.

The Fox intro is redone to be a more theatrical colour graded. The source for this is an original Star Wars 35mm print.
The opening crawl has been redone and retimed to be more theatrically accurate. The starfield during the crawl is now repositioned more accurately. The timing of the tiltdown after it is theatrically timed now. In the SE it gets to the planet too quickly so the music queue was off.
The 3PO “over here, hey help, please help” shot is now UHD Blu-Ray which has a custom wipe to the 35mm Tech
print with R2 in the canyon. This is a huge improvement in quality.
The wipe to the “look sir droids” shot is cleaned up a bit.
The twin suns shot is replaced with the theatrical version.
Greedo hardcoded subs are redone to improve the quality.
The grate that Leia shoots to the trash compactor is theatrical now.
The ships taking off from Yavin shot is redone. Many ships where faint or missing.
The final wipe to the credits is cleaned up a bit.
White specks on the sides of the end credits are cleaned up.
Many other shots are better colour matched. I also fixed light leakage on the sides of many
shots.

enjoy.
