I downloaded A New Hope. There are other folders. Are there any extras to watch or is it just the movie?

Do I need to keep the .RAR files after I extracted the movie or should I delete them?

What are the folders called? If you end up with a file with the .mkv extension you can delete everything else. There shouldn’t be any extras except if you downloaded the blu-ray version (.iso).

The folders are called: Subtitles Project Threepio v9.2, perl, resources, SRT, Sup-720p, vsfilter.

As long as I have the .mkv file I can delete the .rar files?

Yes you can delete the rar files if the mkv plays fine. The folders are for generating subtitles. If you don’t need subtitles, you can delete them as well. Just keep the mkv.

Thanks for your help. I just deleted the .rar files. They were taking up a lot of space on the hard drive.

Harmy, you’re doing God’s work. I just received my Blu Ray of the OT Despecialized, I’m watching the '77 original right now…and it looks and sounds amazing. Moreover, these are the films I saw as a kid, beginning in 1977 when I first saw Star Wars at a drive in with my family at the age of six.

I don’t want a badly rendered CGI Jabba talking with Han at Mos Eisley.I don’t want CGI animals roaming in the desert with CGI stormtroopers riding them. I want the sarlacc and Sy Snootles to be mechanical puppets again.

Thanks for giving that back to me. To all of us.

Sorry if this has been brought up before, trying to find stuff in the 680 pages is difficult…

Lost a hard drive recently so I just redownloaded all the despecialized editions. Trying to save some space for now so I’m stripping out audio files I don’t care about, but the audio tracks don’t match up with the list here. For example, instead of track one being 5.1 and track two being stereo, both track one and two are showing as 5.1…

I don’t have a surround sound setup to see if this is just a weird mislabel/misreading from the software. Can anybody confirm what the audio tracks actually are?

Use MediaInfo.

I can finally rewatch Star Wars without any embarassing CGI shenanigans, i could never thank each and everyone that took part in this project enough.

May the force be with you all.

4K77 is superior.

As with 4K83, there are disagreements. Neither really fits what I’m looking for, but the shortcomings of DeEd bother me less.

I’m just grabbing the documentary BD25s in the meantime. Main focus right now for me is “GET ALL OFFICIAL VERSIONS POSSIBLE” before going for recreations such as this project. I typed more about it in the RETURN OF THE JEDI Despecialized. Too many to keep track of, which I lost track a long time ago. Not in a galaxy far, far away…

At least there’s a ton of subtitles!

Use MediaInfo.

That doesn’t really help. It confirms what the other programs say - tracks one and two are six channels, and also that rest of the tracks are out of order compared to whats listed in the first post (for example, Harmys first post says track 15 is Hungarian, according to MediaInfo track 15 Japanese)

So thats way off. The english ones all just say 2.0 english - how do I know whats 1993 laserdisc, 1985 laserdisc, 1977 35mm stereo, etc?

Edit: ahh okay, I see the problem. Main post says 2.7 is out, but all the audio info is for 2.5… 2.7 (if I’m understanding correctly) is regraded 2.6, with additional audio tracks added and some removed… but no info - at least not in the first post - of whats what. So i guess I have to dig through another 46 pages of this and hope somebody has info https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Harmys-Despecialized-Star-Wars-1977-Color-Adjustment-Project-for-v27-released/id/48257

I just recently watched the OohTeeDee versions and really liked it. Hadn’t seen the theatrical cuts since the 80’s. It was actually pleasant to watch compared to all the horrible CGI in the Special Edition. Next I plan to watch the Harmy version as I still haven’t seen that yet other than scrolling through on the computer.

what’s the best place to get updates on this, his youtube? last vid is from months ago. curious on what the timeline for 3.0 is.

I would guess his youtube channel. Though I doubt 3.0 will be out for a long time as I remember people talking about it coming out in 2015, which is almost 10 years ago.

I’ve had the despecialized versions downloaded for a couple of years now, but haven’t gotten around to watching them. I plan to in the next month or so.

I’m looking forward to 3.0 as basing this off of the 2019 4k versions is the best way to go as the 2019 4K versions is the best the “official” release has ever looked.

Hi, guys, I know I’ve been silent for a while but I’ve been working on a bit of a surprise quietly so stay tuned. And here and the youtube channel, as well as the facebook page are pretty much equally good for keeping up with updates.

Great to hear, Harmy!

I really appreciate the efforts on making these versions as we saw them in theaters back in those days, I really want to see’em now, but I can’t find any link to the movies, only I can find is some cryptic quotes and links that take me to the main page or the discussion forums. Do I have to get on a easter egg hunt and look for hints and clues hidden between words? Any help would be great.

P.S. English is not my mother’s tongue, excuse me if I don’t write properly.
