It may not be as easy to work with as the GOUT, but as far as sitting down and just watching the theatrical movies without DVNR, it's obviously not going to look any better until we have 32mm preservations (and even there, it's looking iffy).

 I guess you mean 35mm.

I'm sorry I was never able to finish a transfer. It's just that I began enthusiastically but in the end simply didn't have the time. Real life was catching up with me.

Nice to hear from you, and I'm also sorry to hear that you were never able to finish them, but it's also understandable, real life is more important, you did however put out one damn fine DVD in "V8" when you were at it. :)

I ofcourse still have the raw X9 captures of the JSC. I'm happy to somehow give them to someone who can finish the project. However, the JSC isn't the holy grail. It has in my view 2 big problems. One is the rainbowing which I think isn't a capture artifact but was on the source itself. And second the ghosting effect, which might be a capture artifact, although I adjusted the sharpness of the capture card to minimize it.

I agree, the rainbowing and ghosting are pretty horrible on these, it looks like Empire have less ghosting than SW though, or am I wrong?

And the JSC are definitely not the holy grail, and I don't think anyone has made them out to be that either, that's the Technicolor prints IMO.
