First post- and what can I say that hasn't been said? Harmy- thank you so much for your (and others') work on preserving and improving the originals. Can't tell you how much it means to an old purist like me!
Ok- I am pretty close to computer illiterate, I'm sorry to say. I have to ask some very basic questions which make me feel like an ass, but there you go!
#1: I downloaded the 3 parts of ANH (DVD version, not HD), and can play each part on Windows Media Player or VLC player. However, I'm missing the entire Death Star approach sequence including most of the battle on the DS surface and about half the trench run. My part 2 ends with Luke in his X-Wing lifting off, and my part 3 begins with Wedge retreating from the trench run. Is it the player's problem, or part of the file that's missing?
#2: What specifically do I do to make the file viewable on a DVD? I tried to just burn it to a disc, and it didn't read. I don't really know if I need to "de-RAR" the files or not (something I've read here but don't really know how to do it).
#3: I downloaded just part 1 of the HD version of ANH to compare, and I can't get that to play on any PC program at all. Can I burn that straight to a DVD and play it in a Blu-Ray player?
#4: Lastly, I was able to download the entire TESB DVD version, and it plays seamlessly on Windows Media Player without having to load individual parts. Here also, what do I do (specifically) to get it ready to play on DVD (and can I get similar instructions for the HD version since I do have a BR player)?
Sorry for the sophomoric questions, and thanks in advance for any help I can get!
