Not sure I follow you there, the UK version by Contender Entertainment used the Fox UK broadcast masters and afaik they are uncut apart from the intro which was the shorter US version. the longer version is on all 3 french sets, not sure about the australian release.. I know the US Mysteries in Time was cut (alot) on 2 of the 4 episodes.
Thanks for the responses everyone
"If only I had had all 39 episodes in virginal quality from those airings, I'd be a GOD to you people! You know how elusive finding perfect copies of this show in English are."
More than a god i'd say! and incredibly elusive to find good copies,
True.
I wish I knew more about the tech stuff, but I hope the colors aren't any different to how I remember this.
By the way, since this is said to be posted in the newsgroups, what would be a good way for me to get this? I've been out of the binary downloading thing for a few years now (my cable company's ISP has a 3 gig a month limit when I was into it). Would there be any other method I could use to get these?
Being reminded of the stupid US edited release of "Ulysses 31" that the guys over in the UK have to put up with for their DVD releases (DiC can be suck dicks at times).

Tims Scutts last set did have some good audio though, it just wasn't used properly and needed restoring properly. I hated the japanese video, colours were totally wrong, way to much diffusion.. the list goes on, Same as the french sets, very yellow, noisey and too much cropping.
Some say that the german release is crap what with bits missing etc, but its colour is much closer to how it should be to any other release out there and less cropped than the french, hence its my base with this restoration.
I just hope you all like what I've done, im a fan, a really big one - but there are many more fans out there that know alot more than me about the show.. im just a tech guy..

I was thinking of the one that was on "Kideo TV" if that was the masters they used for the Fox UK masters. But perhaps I just don't know since I've only ever saw the old VHS rips from the UK VHS releases from back in the 80's. "Kideo TV" was DiC's excuse for cramming three cartoons into one block that ran sometime on the weekends around '86. I think America only ever saw half of U31 as the series was replaced with "The Get Along Gang" in midseason
