I just got the new hard drive I needed to continue the work on this project. Having multiple complete versions of TMP as my source, and also trying to edit the film on the same drive was just not working out at all. Now I hope I can continue without having to stop and re-start every few days to make room. Hitting technical problems just keeps taking the wind out of my sails, and it's a real tough job getting back into the rhythm. I so want this project to look and sound as good as it can.

I know it's kind of late in the game to be asking this, but...

Most of the source footage I'm using for picture is in 4:3 letterbox format (The HD 79' theatrical cut), and the rest is from the Director's cut DVD (including scenes and shots from that dvd's extras section) presented in 16:9 letterbox. I had to down size the Director's cut DVD footage and extras to 4:3. That kind of sucks, and I would rather blow up the 4:3 to 16:9. Is there a way of doing this without making the 4:3 source fottage look like crap after it has been converted to 16:9?
