Thanks for the reply. I read your script but that was before I had ever looked at a script. It scared me to death!!!

However, I will have another look to see how you did it and how I can convert to clips a, b, c, d etc

My initial experiment is with the 1982 Ntsc LD and VHS but now I can do that, I intend to incorporate many other versions. The Faces VHS is already time synced as is the SE (up to the CGI). I am currently preparing the 85 Standard Play LD, the 92 time compressed pan and scan and the widescreen DC as a comparison shot. Also planned are one of my early PAL tapes (squeezed bantha shot), a PAL THX tape and my PAL SE just in case they are different. once I get my early 80's ITV copy back, that will be checked out as well.

Have I missed any out???

It all started with this page I did........ http://homepage.ntlworld.com/russdawson/gtf/swfull.html

......and I simply want to see the same thing but as a moving image

EDIT- I have just compared the last scene of the NTSC THX Faces to the UK PAL equivalent. The NTSC version has the worst ever jump scan across the screen where the PAL suddenly changes to a widescreen version which it carries on right through the credits. All these little things that would not be seen unless shown side-by-side...........
