......as well as read the 1997 DTS CD ROM thread which is mainly about the DTS soundtrack but also veered ever-so-slightly off-topic by discussing an SE standard in the way that the GOUT is a standard.

In short, if we had a frame for frame SE standard and video and audio projects followed that standard, any video or any audio timed to the standard would be interchangeable.

If you look at the options between various GOUT timed releases and the possibilities to customise different video to different audio, I think something comparable can be done for the SE.

I would hate to be searching Google in 10 years time and come across www.specialedition.com with Star Wars fans writing petitions to get a decent version of "the Star wars we grew up with" in the latest HD format!!

These things are 15 years old now and will probably sink without trace if something is not done soon.

On the other hand, I am not really a fan of the SE but strongly believe that it needs to be preserved in the best quality possible.
