Thanks for that awesome V3 set.  What kind of help do you need for the BluRay set?

Waiting on ESB and ROTJ menu's, but I have not heard from my partner in a while, so at this particular point, I have NO idea what is going on.

But to answer your question, I needed menu help, I have ALL audio\video finished, it has been finished for a pretty long time now.

Hey DJ, I hope you got my humor in my last message to you...Dude you are being so good to us by trying everything you know of to make these Blu's as special and professional as possible. I can be as impatient as anybody here but the quality of the work that you have done is so extraordinary that I am willing to wait. 

Thank you again for making these possible. They're going to be awesome next to the official Blus...

d_j, any chance you'd consider sharing a brief clip from the 720p set while waiting on those menus?  I know you said the audio was the big thing on the blu's, but I'm dying to see how these 720p versions look, and knowing that they're sitting on your computer just waiting is driving me nuts :)

Seconded

I agree Harmy, but I did say last three pages. :)

Nice, brief and informative. Maybe it would be a good idea to add links to the latest samples you posted, new people who read that post might not have an idea of how good this really looks.

True that.

I will ask Frink for help, he is good at finding shit.

I'm sure this works a lot faster, easier, and is more what dark_jedi meant:

I already said a few posts back,
"OH, and sorry up front about the color, now I have been fucking around with it."
Well here is the sample, remember it is a big one LOL, I wanted a lot of different scenes to look at, and I will pull back on the noise\grain setting, but like I said, if I go to far back on them it will look like pure crappola, well anyways here is the sample links, and I just want to clarify 1 more time, is this perfect, hell no.

This is a sample I whipped up to show you the problems I am having, look at where the sky meets the ground, watch when Luke runs over to Beru, look over Owens shoulder, and when Owen calls Luke over with him and 3PO, this is a very small clip with no audio.
I still have other setting to try but this is my problem.

I am actually pretty happy with this one, any and all suggestions welcome.

Well I think this is ALL I can do to this video, you have to remember that the flaws that are present on the 2006 retail Limited Edition Bonus DVD & the V3 DVD all have these same flaws, I tried to clean up the best I can, to me it really does not bother me at all, it is what it is, we can only process this video so much, I have asked for suggestions and have gotten very few to none(and when I say suggestions I mean actual filters, commands,etc.) I also think I have a pretty fair balance between the grain and noise problem now to, all scenes look pretty good, again, at least to me, this set obviously will not be for everyone, but I think it will be a great companion set to the official BD Saga release this September, well here are the links, it is only a 699 MB file and uses the 1985 Stereo LPCM audio, and for the color, I tweaked it just a little bit, but it is real close to the V3 SW color.

*Edit - If you guys do like this all I have to do is finish up the subs and then I can render this baby and move on to ESB.

How goes your attempt to reconstruct the 1997 version in HD, or are you waiting for the blu ray release as the base ?

What does the 1997 version have to do with the Theatrical Edition?

Try the other thread.  The one with 1997 in the title.

Sorry but that has nothing to do with Blu ray, it has to do with the other broadcast versions derived special edition v2 which never was released, but i guess i could move it there.
