Firstly I would add the Dolby 2.0 soundtrack to Post 1 which is part of the same source as the 5.1 track you list.

There is another possible source that could be used right away.

Given the work done by msycamore with ANH SE that is a perfect frame by frame sync to the 2004 DVD and can actually be synced to the 2004 audio, the opposite has already been done - if it is still in circulation.

When it was discovered how bad the 2004 ANH DVD was, a DVD "appeared" with the 1997 Dolby Digital 5.1 synced to the 2004 DVD. (In theory) That track could be muxed in with the msycamore ANH project file.

Does anyone out there have this release??

This DVD includes the sparkling new 16x9 picture transfer made for the 2004 DVDs. It also includes a Dolby Digital 5.1 track, but not the error filled mix found on the current DVD. Instead, this soundtrack is the 1997 remix heard theatrically in 1997 when the film was rereleased for it’s 20th anniversary. It's single layer and the sync is perfect.
