My only qualm is the battle of heroes music during obiwans fight with Vader, it should not be there, can you please remove it?, or it should be very stubble at least. It took away the emotional impact of Obi-wans sacrifice.

Other than that, perfect!!!!

Search for the Purist Edition. In that, he undoes a half-dozen changes to make the film more true to the original, including losing the music during the duel.

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

Indeed. I agree with Ziz. If you don't like the Prequel music, then the Purist Edition is definitely for you. There's more information about it here.

The HD redo is going to try to have the option to let you choose between music or no.

Didn't know that... That sounds like fantastic news. I'll be interested in checking that out when it comes out that is.

This needs to be fixed in ANHRSE:

Luke can be seen semi-transparent in the right-most doorway, a still frame used in the wipe recreation for the SE.

It is also in ANHR. Missed it. ;-)

Well my Purist torrent stopped at 92.3% last night and I have not been able to find any more seeds. Do I request those here or is there another more appropriate way to go about doing that?

A bit of a stupid Question but still :)

I live in Holland. Play my dvd's on the Playstation 3, on a plasma.

Wich is the better version, the dual layer PAL or NTSC? I would say the pal in case of the increased lines but still would like to hear thoughts :)

Depends on if you care about the 4% speed-up sound wise. You either get speed-up with slightly better resolution, or regular speed. Up to you, really.

I'm in the same boat as Hellbot. Any help would be appreciated.

DMaarten: Being from Holland, you're probably used to the PAL speedup, so I'd recommend the pal DVD with it's higher resolution and no pull down.

Just to offer my opinion (if I may), I'd prefer the exact same edit only without the music during the Vader/Obi-Wan duel. The pacing and re-cutting of it is awesome, I just felt the music didn't fit.

Also ady, I truly hope you decide to switch to 1080p (including ROTJ, ANH and the prequels) as on a 1080p screen it really does make a noticeable difference. (Yes I know all of this has been addressed). Just my two cents, my friend. :)

AVCHD? Upload to tehparadox please. I wouldn't mind a 1080i AVCHD either.

Hi FremenDar, I believe that an AVCHD was released by someone onto the Newsgroups but it was not Adywan. It was actually just an upscaled version of the DVD, but some said it looked pretty good; it may actually be an interesting upload to tehparadox.

Anyway, the "official" Adywan 720p HD version comes after ROTJ: Revisited.

Thanks. I'd much rather have 720p compared to an upscale.

FremenDar, if you're still curious, here are the comments about the 720p upscale on the Newsgroups.

Wow, just wow, I only recently came across this project and managed to get a hold of an .avi version; it did not disappoint!

Absolutely superb Adywan, in my opinion a definitive version of ANH. In fact your work is really what should have been done originally for the DVD releases. Fantastic to finally have the lightsabers in ANH fixed, has always bugged me, has always been the most obvious fix yet for some reason Lucas et al seem to be oblivious to it!

The Death Star space battle is also brilliant, I think I may run out of superlatives in describing the work you did in creating the new models, indeed your added stuff looks better and more realistic than the CGI X-wings Lucas added in '04!

It is a testament to your skill, hardwork and patience that you have in fact produced a superior version of the film than all of Lucas Arts put together. Not sure there is anything I would suggest or change about what I just saw, it's fantastic, really, really good job. Thanks so much for doing the films justice with a great edit, and thanks also for releasing it for the rest of us to enjoy.

I've been trying to download higher quality versions, but alas so far j-downloader and u-torrent (both installed just to get this) seem unable to download, either due to rapidshare not playing ball or their being no peers/seeds online.

Anyone have any suggestions on where I would be able to get The DVD-9 and Purist versions? (I'd love to compare the two). Thanks in advance for any help anyone maybe able to provide! If you have any direct download links please also PM me...

I just watched ANH on Blu-Ray, and Adywan's lightsabers look A LOT better. Amazing what can be accomplished when you actually care.
