PSA to all:

VLC was once good. Not so much these days. You’re much better off with MPC-HC or MPV.

Yeah I’ve burnt the movies onto blu-rays now which work perfectly so I don’t need to worry about watching it on my laptop. Thank you for your help though!

I am having trouble getting the most up to date link list for the BD50 set. The one I seem to be getting is from December 16, 2018. Can someone tell me how to get the up to date list?

Hi all
so after buying the new Star Wars Blu-Ray’s, I decided it was time to have another go at downloading the despecialized versions, which I got a lot further with this time (though I had no luck getting FreeRapid to work on my up-to-date Mac, even with some Java workarounds), yet as far as I can tell, there seems to be a lot of files missing from the provided links on MEGA. I’ve not actually used MEGA before so it’s possible it’s me.

I’m trying to download the ‘fewest discs’ option, yet…

  • the direct links for the majority of the files for the 50GB film discs seem to lead to dead ends. Loading the individual .rar URL’s directly in Safari result in a “The file you are trying to download is no longer available” message. Looking at the Folder URL’s for each of the 3 discs, they indeed show that almost every one of them are absent.

Star Wars v2.7 only lists parts 1, 3, 30, 35 & 81
Empire v2.0 only lists parts 9, 41, 43 & 62
Jedi v2.5 only lists part 63

  • the files for the 3 documentaries discs all appear to be present and working so far (I’ve created ISO’s of the first 2 ‘discs’ & had a quick look in VLC and everything seems fine). That said, all 3 have a lone .md5 file * (Empire also has a .txt file), but I’ve assumed they’re the last bits of data not worth building a .rar for.

I’m really looking forward to going through the vintage extras & finally getting to see the original versions of the trilogy after such a long time (seeing Jedi on first release is one of my earliest cinema-going memories), so I’m hoping this is something that can be rectified and isn’t a victim of renewed piracy or something of that nature.

Thanks immensely to all those involved in creatiing these editions, and for making them available.

* EDIT: now that I’ve looked up what an MD5 file actually is, this makes sense, but I’m not sure what to do with it - is it there to use manually for examining the checksum of the download, or does this happen automatically as the ISO file is created?

When i add the mega links in FreeRapid there are some errors saying that they can’t find mega files, ive had this with a new hope BD-50, Empire strikes back BD-50, and i am now testing BD-50 of the return of the jedi, which i probably think still has them all.

I am having the exact same issues that Adam X, and Ruben-Egmond are having…
The link list is quite outdated and the only sets that are seemingly complete are the Documentary .rar files. The main 3 link lists of the DEEDs films are missing quite a lot of the .rar files now. I was extremely excited about having this collection of Blu-rays and have even bought and labeled the boxes and disks for them with the artwork. It would be greatly appreciated if the link lists for this collection could get updated.

Thank you solkap and to NJVC and Harmy for these phenomenal restorations and this collection, and for all the efforts of you and everyone else that made, and continue to make, them happen. Massive LOVE to you people from me and so many other Star Wars fans past, present, and in the future. You truely are legends.

Most of links are down. Is there any possibility to re-upload them, for Yoda’s sake?

The BD50’s I don’t have. But I could probably get them. Let me know (here) if I should do that, which one’s specifically if possible, etc. I think there’s 4 of them.

I believe I have all the BD25’s stored away. Well, 8 of them. I hope that’s all of them. If I’m missing 1 or 2 I could probably get it too.
PM me if you’d like them.

Hey SnooPac,
I’d really like it if you could find the BD50s for all 3 of the “films + special features” discs.
Thank you very much!

Is there anyway I could get these too SnooPac. I would really appreciate it. I followed all the steps until I realized several files were missing. Please PM me.

Hi SnooPac,

Sorry to bother you, but may I also get the BD50s for all the films as well as the special features?

Thanks a lot! 😃

Hello SnooPac,

I hate to ask, but could I also get the BD50s for the films and special features? I plan to introduce my kids to the original versions of SW this weekend. 😃 I also came to the end of the road with pretty much all dead links.

I really appreciate it! 😃

Hey Snoo,

I’m not sure if the links are dead or not (from what I looked at, they appeared all live but I haven’t attempted any downloads) but if it’s no trouble, could I get a PM for the full set of BD25’s?

Thanks so much, man!

Up the irons!
