People will argue all day about this but in my opinion, allowing for all it's faults, the 2006 retail DVD is a better picture quality than the original TR47 you originally used.
Also, the 2006 retail DVD has the original 1977 crawl - albeit re-created - which would be well worth seeing in your split screen format.

Oh, BTW, I'm not on the forums often enough to know this but are the crappy "original trilogy" DVD's that came out last year accurate enough to justify creating a new and accurate Episode IV splitscreen v2.0? I want to make it better and I would rather use retail quality stuff and not bootlegs. Also, if it is, are they DVD9 or DVD5? I would redo it as a DVD9 and would use the source DVD's as they are with no re-encoding to make the quality bestest as possible. I don't have them since they were not anamorphic.

If I were to see an unaltered DVD9 of 2006 Episode IV release in the bins you may see a new splitscreen v2.0
Since I still have all my assets from the "Addicted To" project now would be the time to do this before I wipe them out, all of them...
