would like to hear update
Hasn't been online since September 5th. Hope he's all right... or maybe the project's hit a stall? I hope it's only the latter.

Yep still alright, the project has been put on hold for a little while. Working on this level costs alot of money to be honest, family comes first. Still another 1000 bucks to spend before its finished i reckon, not that far off now tho.

I thought you had all of the expensive stuff already (power supplies and exotic caps etc). Just curious, what are you buying for the player that is so expensive?
I would love to have a go at doing something similar to my player as well, but this all sounds well outside of my budget unfortunately :o(
If television is chewing gum for the mind, then the prequels are the worlds first visual laxative.
Wow from the sound of it would have been cheaper to buy a refurbished X0 or X9 from japan, a thousand extra bucks just for parts.

Any updates? I am excited about this project. I just hope it doesn't fall into vaporware like the XØ Project.
Its not dead, ordering parts at the moment. I hope people understand building gear at this level costs money and time. Its almost re engineering at this point, not simple recapping and basic mods.

Please take as long as you need , im sure it will be worth the wait .
I understand. Take all the time you need. I'd rather wait and have this done right than have it now but not as good.
Alek - I don't want to take your thread too much off topic, but any info you could provide in response to this thread would be appreciated. Ta!

It certainly would be a waste of all that wonderful effort to make a super high quality, no compromises transfer only to mangle it with such a crummy format as DVD.
You know, just sayin'.
You ain't gonna get any benefit outputting to a format better than DVD.

Significant reduction in file size and artifacts, no anamorphics, no wasting pixels on hard coded black bars, native res and no PAL speedup/Telecine bullshit.
You know, just sayin'. ;P
I will make a Dvd also, for now im trying to finish the mechanical bit of the project.

Any updates ?
Is there any news on this project ?
Yeah, it would be great to hear any details of how it's going. This super charged Laserdisk player should produce excellent Star Wars Laserdisk captures! :)
The Star Wars trilogy. There can be only one.
As I'm sure you know, Lucasfilm made several "master tapes" for their various 1993 releases, only the one used to create the definitive edition (/faces) was used for the DVD. Capturing multiple releases would be useful as they could be edited to use the best quality video (though this has been done with the retail DVD as it is), but especially if there's an NTSC version that doesn't suffer from DVNR.Aleksbmw said:
Im thinking of releasing a blue ray format release also, since whats the point in IVTC the whole thing then cramming it back into interlaced for a dvd.
Progressive > interlaced. Technically by the way those owning the re release gout dvd can watch mine with no trouble since the master tape is basically the same.
aleksbmw, come on fella give us an update please.
Last online January 9th... :/
