Another interesting point to note about this set; Empire and Jedi do not have the 20th Century Fox fanfare. Instead it has been replaced with the CBS Fox home video intro.

A little strange to watch, because everyone is used to the fanfare continuing to play into the "Lucasfilm" logo, however on these tapes the CBS/Fox music has finished by the time Lucasfilm appears.

(I expect that now, due to this unique feature, the more dedicated geek members of the forum will be clamouring for a straight transfer of this set... )

I knew that I had read this somewhere recently but the effect it would have on the start of the film did not dawn on me until I saw it for myself.

It is a very strange and unique feature but there has been none of the "clamouring for a straight transfer of this set..." that you predicted!!

I suppose that if anyone wished to re-create the effect, they could use the sample vob I posted earlier.

Anyhow, I have now done what I set out to originally do so I will now capture the rest of my tapes to do some detailed side-by-side comparisons of supposed identical sets.

Still no further info on the 1991 Widescreen time-stretched release..........
