No, I would consider the FanFiltration version a "Fan Edit".
My Godfather project is not just a direct rip of a now out-of-print laserdisc presentation, but rather it's a reworking of the film using various out-of-print sources (and the DVD set for 2 scenes).
So yes, JohnnyFree is correct in calling my version a fan edit. Mainly due to the fact that I made changes to the placement order of a few scenes, and also included scenes that had never been intended to be part of the saga by the director. I made new edits to include as much footage as possible from all versions. Also, I had to make some changes to the films soundtrack so that it would blend scenes from different sources better. There are also some new title cards placed into the film to show Location and date changes in the godfather font. The most noticeable change I made, was to include the out take scene “A Family Fight (Connie and Carlo arguing at Vito's)”. This scene was very hard to insert, but I believe my new edit works quite well.
