Sounds like an ideal Star Wars HD version has been put together from what's available, with the superior video quality of the German broadcast being used for everything except the few short scenes where the German opening title crawl and subtitles are present, plus a correct speed/pitch English soundtrack. Nice work, Wookie Groomer! Was the English 5.1 soundtrack taken from the 2004 U.S. DVD set, or taken from SkyTV and then speed/pitch corrected? Is this English soundtrack synchronized perfectly with the video at all times?

Hmm, if someone could get access to enough 1080p video from the original unaltered trilogy that at least the worst changes from the even-more-SE 2004 DVD set (Han shooting first, Anakin returned to his normal self again, etc.) could be replaced, and then apply some color correction to fix the messed up colors from the 2004 SE, a really nice semi non-SE HD set of the original trilogy could be put together.
