I'm anticipating this is the real deal. I think it would give people confidence to know it is. I wouldn't trust the timecode of some sort of hack-y fan release, but (after a quick examination) I would trust the numbers from the X0 Project.

I can't wait until there are audio streams and subpicture files that are all synched to the X0 Project timecode! For that matter, I can't wait until the offsets to the "official" (i.e. X0) timecode are known for all other releases. Imagine how nice it would be to know that if you took the audio from TR47, added 2.345 seconds of silence at the beginning, cropped out 0.678 seconds starting at 1:02:04.234, that it would match up with the X0 video, say? This sort of standardization would just kick ass.

I think there will be a certain irony come September, when one of the first orders of bidness with the OUT release is to derive its X0 Project offset numbers, just as with any other fan edit/preservation before it.

It may be a cheap-o DivX version, but this version could be the gold standard in all things preservation. Which is exciting as all hell.
