I confess I haven't really been following the work on your Lancer project until recently. Now that I see you're incorporating a mono soundtrack, many of DE's outstanding changes, PLUS tips from mverta, I'm hooked. I only wish the links to your screenshots and video samples were still active.
I have a few comments and questions:
I downloaded the sample menus, and they look great. My only issue is that the tumbnails for the chapters look a little small. Have you considered going with fewer, bigger thumbnails on each chapter page? As they are now, they work on the computer monitor, but I don't know how well they would work on a medium sized TV screen.
As far as the soundtracks go, are they all done? If they are, I say try to use them all. Maybe you can make two versions of the DVD: a dual layer version with all soundtracks, and a single layer version with option C. I wouldn't recommend doing only option B, since the DTS will be unplayable on some systems (like mine).
This may be a stupid question, but what version of the soundtrack ('85, '93, '97, '04) is the basis of the PCM 2.0, 5.1 DTS, and 5.1 Dolby Digital tracks?
IMHO, this release seems like it deserves the full dual layer treatment, regardless of the soundtrack issue. I'd hate to lose even the slightest amount of visual detail.
Do you have an expected release date for ANH?
Thanks!
