DOH!!!!!!!

I just check my HD and the subs are not on my master - BUT I need to check with my Brother who has the actual DVD's - He's working now so it will be at least until Midnight before I find out for sure - IF it does have Subs - ANYONE that got the disc from me will get a replacement FREE of ANY charges - except UK shipping $5 a pop for gloabl priority - I'll check into free airmail but I'll need to check

PLEASE wait until I post that I have it - THEN you can email me NOT PM me (it's gettin' full fast!!) for details on a replacement

Again I'M SO SO SO SO SO SO SORRY about this - I can't figure out why Ep I has them but NOT EP II but rest assured I will find out why!!!

Please forgive me guys........................

No worries m8 - I did think I was cracking up though!

(and the missus is REALLY fed up with me messing around with the dvd player )

And even STRANGER -

My brother just stopped by and dropped of the Episode II: The Clone War DVD

My master does not have subtitles at all

I just popped it in the DVD player and the PC - nothing!?!?!

So I browsed the VIDEO_TS folder and this is what I found

- A folder named PAR with two files in it called TEMP0.VBS.par + TEMP1.VBS.par < ?????
- VIDEO_TS.BUP
- VTS_01_0.BUP
- .DS_Store < MAC OSX file?
- VIDEO_TS.IFO
- VTS_01_0.IFO
- VOB_DATA.LAY < SpruceUp DVD encoder file?
- Untitled Disc.layout < SpruceUp DVD encoder file?
- VIDEO_TS.VOB
- VTS_01_0.VOB
- VTS_01_1.VOB
- VTS_01_2.VOB
- VTS_01_3.VOB
- VTS_01_4.VOB
- VTS_01_5.VOB

The Balance of the Force DVD has a normal DVD layout and all the normal files and the Subs play just fine
- could I have an early prototype DVD as it does have all the layout files in it still ??

CW was made with an earlier version of Dvd Studio Pro, as it was actually finished before Balance of the Force.
The subtitles were defaulted on, without the option of turning them off, so they should be there no matter what, but I've noticed that one of my newer dvd ripping programs does not recognize the subtitle track as being there to rip it, where as an older one does.
I'm guessing this is a compatability issue with dvd studio pro 1.
Anyway, I'm ripping everything and re assembling it with the current version.
That should fix the old compatibility issues. Still really strange...
Every device I play the old disc on displays the subtitles, it just does not display the option of a subtitle track to turn on and off...

With all the fan edits and remasters, we now only need a fan remastering of that horrible "Turkish Star Wars" travesty ...

(If I just gave someone an idea, for the love of God, DON'T... I've only seen snippets of this, and I'd rather watch a two hour footage of Ahmed Best, Hayden Christensen and Jake Lloyd making fart noises with their armpits and stupidly giggling "Peeyoosa!" at one another. Calling that "film" horrible would be glorifying it...)

PAR or 'Parity' files are used to reconstruct missing files. They are very popular in binary newsgroups which is where I suspect this copy originated from. You might try running QuickPar to see if any data is recovered.

Greedo shoots first? Not in my DVD player.

OMG! That is frickin' hilarious! Scary, but hilarious...

Oh, and thanks for looking into that subtitle issue for us Magnoliafan. As a fellow fan I really appreciate yours' and Rikter's efforts.
The original Star Wars trilogy: Our cultural history deserves to be preserved and should be available to the public like all great works of art!

Yeah, LFL have really become jackyls.
The cover art was online for like 2 hours before they ordered the site torn down.
You can still get it if you catch me on AIM.

Oh and the Clone War subtitle thing seems to be a compatibility issue with certain dvd players and the way the disc was made. Some dvd players the subs show up, some they don't.
I'm throwing together a new disc of the film with a more standard subtitle track like I used for "Balance of the Force" and I'm sending it to Rikter tomorrow in the AM.

It's weird no matter HOW I do it it ends up with no sound - I'll be trying to convert it to Divx later this week

Hello all, was wondering if you could tell me where/how I could get this most interesting MagnoliaFan edit of the prequels...I'm in the UK...oojason, from your Hillsborough stuff (good to see a fellow Liverpool fan btw), I take it you're in the UK, how did you get it? Sorry if this has been mentioned and somehow missed by me...Cheers all.

G'day Wajas - always good to met other LFC fans.

Are you full of hope, despair or somewhere in-between for the new season? It has certainly been an interesting Summer for us Liverpool fans...

Re - the MagnoliaFan Edits on DVDr - email or PM 'Rikter' (bloke who posted just before you in this thread) and he'll sort you out. It usually takes around 4 days from despatch in the USA to reach our doorsteps - which is pretty good going.

Check out the 1st post in this thread to check out all the SW stuff available...

Yeh interesting summer so far...am very much looking forward to the new season - think appointment of Rafa was quite the coup. Still reckon we need a few signings though, a centre-back, right wing and a central midfielder I think, but am excited by Cisse, he looks the shit.
Author

Wajas - a few more players would be most welcome. especially in the posiitions you mentioned. Very much looking forward to having Rafa as our manager this season (though I wasn't a GH basher either).

Very much exciting times ahead - even with that new away shirt! lol

Do you post on the forums at redandwhitekop.net or ynwa.tv?

Any luck emailing Rikter yet?

I gave Rikter a PM, no response yet but i'm sure he'll get back to me.

I tend to frequent KopTalk, the news and insider stuff is a good laugh though I don't post very often. I wasn't a GH basher, he'll always have a place in my heart for delivering some silverware for the first time in many years. We were close, just that year of signing Diouf Cheyrou and Diao instead of, say, Duff, really did damage. I think if he'd bought better players then a lot would have been different. But that's life. He was a good honest man, didn't deserve a lot of the stick he got...have to admit I was surprisingly emotional when he was sacked!

And you're right, that new Away shirt is a crime against humanity.

Wajas - IIRC you have to go into your Profile and 'turn on' the PM function for PMs to reach you - for some reason the default setting for PMs is 'off'.

Details of both the MagnoliaFan Edits can be found in the 1st post in this thread - both IMHO are very good and worthy Edits - certainly I found these a LOT more enjoyable and inkeeping with the OT than those of Lucas'.

Re- I hear the stories of Duff's signing being only hours away before GH decided against and to strenghthen the sqaud - it seemed like a good idea at the time. Recently ones that Shearer was only a day away from coming to us last season but Freddy Shephed vetoed it as he was worried about the Newc fans' reactions - seems that 'success and failure' are VERY fine in football these days...

GH left Rafa with a good squad and a club in a lot better shape than GH found it in - hopefully Rafa will kick it on another gear or two and we'll make a realisitic challenge for the title soon.

Rikter m8 - any chance you can put in a few spaces or gap lines between the various differing Edits and dvds in your 1st post in this thread? - it's starting to get so I don't notice where one dvd starts and ends (prob my old eyes failing me )

Cheers m8

Ah didn't know about the PM issue, thanks very much. Turned on now.

Yeah no doubt GH left a useful legacy. We're just a few players away from a pretty decent team... hope Rafe can deliver!

Does anyone know what happens to film prints that go out to the cinemas after they are used. Because I have heard of projectionists keeping prints. So could there be someone out there with a print of the Pre ANH SW or any of the originals.

Or is this very unlikely.

I worked at a theater for most of the 90's, and at least while I was was there, there was no way in freakin' hell anyone could get away with keeping a print. Even if a print was nearly destroyed from a projector malfunction, whatever was left had to be returned to the studio, and then you might have to pay $1500-$2500 in print replacement.

Flash - how easy is (or was) it for a projectionist of dubious standing to erm... make a decent copy of a film (or off the print itself) whilst engaging in your previous line of work?
