Hi all,

Has anyone created a sub 4GB version of the Harmy's despecialized Editions of Star Wars IV-VI? I would like to watch the movies with my family on our HD TV, which has a USB port (accepts only FAT32 formatted hard drives). I tried using Handbrake to get them down to 4GB but the audio was way off after about one hours of play.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

From my experience, Handbrake doesn't like the "header removal compression" found in Harmy's mkv files. After turning off the compression using Mkvtools (for Mac; search for Win equivalent if needed), the sync issue will probably disappear in HB transcodes.  The AppleTV 2 preset, with only one or two audio tracks selected, and large file size unchecked, will probably result in a nice HD file that is under 4GB. Good luck!
