Hi guys, I am sorry to report that it looks like ANH has a problem with interlace flicker / jaggies. The problem is most noticeable on horizontal / diagonal lines like on C-3POs shouldar and collar, or on the orb in the Death Star briefing room. Unfortunately it appears to be a problem with either the way the LDs have been mastered or the 1995 PAL master itself as it effects the French audio LDs as well as the Coffret LDs.

I did test using my s-video connection instead of composite to see if that helped but it didn't! :(

As I see it at this point I have two options, I can leave the jaggies as they are or I can try and fix them up as best I can. To be honest I have no idea where to begin tackling this problem, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks

Missed this post - I can't remember seeing jaggies on these discs, but there were some strange interlacing artefacts when Han was unholstering his blaster under the table in the cantina.

Maybe a screenshot would help?
