Generally: many of the interviews although they have an overdub, you can still make out the english underneath.

Here's some random bits which I found interesting:

TVFocus
Around 12:50 when George is previewing Grievous ideas, "If we went droid" comment, missed that the first time around.

11.5. arte KurzSchluss - Das Magazin 0:13:45
This views as a great program even without understanding German. Focuses on his early works. Don't think i've seen an equivalent program in english. They cover 'Look at Life' and 'Electric Labyrinth' What is the gist of the segue (the scenes of Cleopatra, etc.) I guess those are some shots from when Lucas worked on Coppola's set? (beware when they get to THX-1138 they go through the history, but use footage from the special edition) and a bit of Graffiti, before jumping to Ep3.

another female broadcaster who purrr'd when checking out Anakin. (clip 3 right after the RotS vader towards the end.)

Like the kids show, just wish they showed more reactions shots, since all the SW costume stuff is unusual for the average person, but at that age you believe it. and Daniels (with original 3po head) talks in english yet the shows not, translationally awkward.

There's a clip (in chapter 7) of a SE era GL (blue flannel) interview around 14:30, 15:40, 16:40 (w/ character mascot around...)

The local 501st show up in many clips, so if you are into that aspect of fandom again this disc might interest you. Also the beginning and end have new clips from the fan film, Tydirium. http://www.tydirium-derfilm.de/

Thanks for preserving and making available these bits of SW history.  What took place in the many years between making this and putting it out?

The video quality is great and the DVD menu is clean and informative.
