THE STAR WARS SAGA - 1080P AVCHD DVD-9 for PS3 & Blu-Ray players - Episodes 1, 4 & 5 available now — Page 22

So Adywan, which release is next on the list for the AVCHD treatment? Will you have time while working on Empire Revisted?

Anyone put this on Rapidshare yet? Torrent is taking forever.

Too bad you didn't add any dutch subtitle as you did with the first one.

But still great work!

hi im using bit torrent to download it, and it has got to 99.7% and stopped because there was an error saying 'error : the requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation' anyone know what this means? iv got loads of space left on my hdd. Its so annoying im so close with only 0.3% left to go! do you think if i burnt it now it would work ok?

I highly doubt it... Try restarting the torrent application, then restarting the computer if that doesn't work. You could also stop the torrent (but don't delet what you've already downloaded!) and force a recheck of the file. I assume you're running some flavor of Windows and the HDD is formatted to NTFS and not something with filesize limits like FAT32?

Let me start off by giving huge thanks to Adywan for working to set the trilogy right again with these releases.

I've been trying to get ANH off Usenet (I'll admit to being a near-complete Usenet newbie), but I keep running into issues with parts 59 and 61 being incomplete. (Not corrupt, just missing messages making me unable to combine the messages) - Just wondering if anyone else has run into this.

Thanks for the quick reply - I've used Quickpar before, but was under the (possibly mistaken) impression that I needed to at least have the problematic .rar files in order to repair them. (The problem I have is that my newsreader (News Rover) can't form the .rar files as large numbers of the messages in those two parts are missing)

Like I mentioned in the first post, I'm a Usenet newbie - is there a way to form the .rar files manually when a large number of the messages that form the .rar file are completely missing? (or will the par files completely build the two missing .rar files when I begin the scan?)

Thanks again for the help and work!

Yup - just figured it out (told you I was a newbie!) - there is a way for it to combine the files that it was unable to complete automatically, so once I finish downloading all the par2 files, I should be good to go.

I know I said it before, but it still bears saying - thanks again for both your help and the work on this version of the trilogy!

Any Rapidshare links for this, I've downloaded 50% but now it's gonna take 4 days to get via torrent :-(

No rapidshare links I know of.  The problem with the torrent is that there's loads of hit and run downloaders.  Next time I'll upload it to a torrent site that requires you to maintain a share ratio.

This is a good idea, as long as we are able to get invtes for the site to everyone that needs one, or we can find a site that doesn't require invites.

Adywan,

I found  ROTJ somewhere:

 
     Format       : x264
     Source       : HDTV
     Resolution   : 1280x544 6589 kbit/s
     Audio        : AC3 5.1 384 kbit/s English
     Subtitles    : English

Is this your next AVCHD release or made by someone else? 
Just wanted to ask, because I would prefer your colour-corrected release and 
would rather wait if it is not.

Hi fellas - Ady, is there any news on the 14gb mkv version of this? - I'm really really looking forward to that!

Cheers

 Ditto that....!!

One question regarding the 14GB version. How can you possibly edit and color correct the video data and go directly from original transports streams to x.264 mkv file without a transcoding process along the way at some point? Especially if you are using Vegas?

To clarify, my encodes were avsynth avi frameserving in Vegas then encoded directly to WMV-HD from there. It seems you have a few paths to take the video stream through before it actualy hits the final encoded stage. I was conerened about keeping the video quality as uncorrupted as possible as by using frameserving I was able to color correct, frame edit and timesync the original transport stream directly in Vegas then straight to wmv encode.

Aside from that I too am still looking forward to your 14GB edition. I'll always embrace the highest quality editions I can get my hands on, even though, as of yet I still haven't found anything better than the Premier caps.
