INv8r_ZIM, you're right about the video noise. My program has a denoiser, it looks terrible, loses a lot of detail. It didn't occur to me until now that avisynth has a denoiser. reddish-orange sabers? I must have moved the hue too far in some shots. I can bring it back and get a more pure and consistent red. About the desaturation, a little of it is histograms, a lot of it is the DVD itself. I know in a couple shots R2s dome was like neon blue, like when he's scanning for Luke and threepio comes and gets him. I had to kill a lot of the overall saturation there and in the end threepio went a little faded in those shots. Anyway, thank you.
How's everyone's download speed going? I'm giving as much upload speed as I can but I'm also downloading the HD broadcast of ANH (for no particular reason...). How're people's percentages going?
