Darth,

Well I tried both burning in both 16:9 and 4:3 formats, when I play it on my standard TV it still crops too much picture, making it around a 1:85 ratio.

What should I do to get the entire 2:35 shown on my TV? Burn another DVD, but what format/setting? I used WINDOWS DVD MAKER.

Forget using Windows DVD Maker it's a pile of s**t. If you are trying to burn the last 2 clips i posted to dvd then you don't need to reencode them because they are DVD compliant mpegs (unless you are converting them to NTSC of course). Try using a different program.

Sevb32, use "ConvertXtoDVD". It works perfectly.

I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.

NTSC is what I was doing. And it won't let me burn avi or mov files

First, ConvertXToDVD is not freeware.

Download this program, does the same thing while retaining a higher bitrate than ConvertXtoDVD.

Ah ok. Don't quite know what your problem is but....about ConvertXtoDVD is concerned, I never said it was or wasn't freeware. What does that matter? And as far as bitrate is concerned that's adjustable as well within the program....JHC some people.

A small Christmas prezzie for you all. Here's 2 new clips iclusing a sneak peak at the new footage from the Death Star battle. The clips are both MPeg2 with AC3 5.1 surround from the final mix. Clip 1 is pretty low bitrate due to size constraints but the Death Star battle clip has got a slightly higher bitrate but not as high as the final render will be. Plus in the battle sequence there are a few unfinished shots.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE !!!!

Ah, I see the two clips have been posted on Youtube. I presume they're compressed even more then...



Obi-Wan Clip

Vader Clip


(of course I can't hear any sound because my sound card is crappy)

I'm having trouble with a few of those downloads but I'm watching the extra clip and I have to say, the music sounds phenominal! It's so clean and crisp. I've been working to clean up the 2disc release and Mine sounds only slightly better which says a lot about the mix. What did you do?

Also... I noticed that the sound warbles in and out of tune... it's driving me crazy... do you all know why this is?


Is it not sad that in this time, we are more surprised by acts of love than acts of hate?

Well for that scene the mix was rebuilt from the ground up. Only the original center channel remains from the 2004 5.1 mix. I used the soundtrack Cd for the music. I was also able to enhance the soundtrack CD by using the 24-bit crystalizer that is part of the mixer of my X-FI fatality soundcard. I had to record the whole soundtrack by using "what you hear" because unfortunately it can only be used for listening to the audio and not able to use it as a filter on existing tracks but it has given it a slight sparkle to the mix. Most people probably won't even be able to hear the difference. To give the music a little more clarity i also overlayed the score to the original DVD mix L&R channels at a low volume with high frequencies enhanced by the equalizer.

Is this on my clip? can you explain a little more?

Well its all going great at the moment. Only a few shots left now. I've just finished all the hologram shots for the rebel control room table during the battle that had plagued me for months. They all just suddenly fell into place after having the X-mas break so i'm well chuffed. If all goes according to plan you should see the XVID & DVD-5 barebones appear within the next couple of weeks with the DVD-9 & the NTSC versions appearing a few weeks after (if not sooner)

Happy New year

Ady, I noticed in the latest clip during the space battle in a couple of quick had shots of Luke in the X-Wing you could see black with no stars behind Luke, one shot happens about a second before you hear the line, "Red 2 have you seen Red 5?".

One thing I noticed whilst watching the various clips... along the bottom of the black bars (when viewing in VLC player), there is a thin white line that flashes during certain frames, highlighting the black bar.

Will this sort of thing appear on a TV set when playing the DVD? If so, that ought to be fixed, it looks crappy.

This will not appear in the final render. All the clips have been very quick renders and the problem you mention was only a result of that.

Ady,

That is great news that it is in the homestretch.

The more I think about it, the happier I get.

2008 will be off to a great start...Your edit...Clone Wars animated series...Force Unleashed game/book...

Great time to be a SW fan indeed.


Out of all those things though, I am most looking forward to your edit. Sorry George L...lol.

Wow! That sounds great! Shame I prob'ly won't be gettin' it soon, see, since my dad's been outta work since July, and money's very tight.

Anyway, my angsty life aside, the most recent clips looked awesome! At the moment, my head's feeling a bit vague, since I'm listening to Sweeney Todd right now, but rest assured, I've not been quite as excited for Star Wars stuff in quite a few years.

May the Force be with you, Adywan, always!

??? Why would you need money for this edit? It's free, Adywan is doing it for the fans, he is not gonna charge anyone for his work.

He gets shot down in the DS battle doesnt he....
Either that or he accidentally walks in front of GReedo just as Han is shooting first...

Very pretty your DVD cover is, Ady.

Heh, the mentioning of adding Lucas into the movie suddenly reminded me of this.
You totally should have made one of the rebel pilots into a Spartan
