This is a full-scale restoration/remaster of 4k77.
Full shot for shot color correction, shot for shot dust/scratches removal and
DNR/regraining. I want this to be as close as a professional remaster of the original film could look like.
no more green tint, no more deep blacks. No More Dust/Scratches

Sources:
.4k77 1.4 (NO DNR)
.4k78
.Star Wars Silver Screen Edition (used strictly and only for color reference)

Release info:
Aspect ratio - 1920x1080. (A 4k version will be released later)
Frame rate - 23.976
Audio tracks -
track 1, Original '77 stereo mix.
track 2, 70mm 5.1 mix.
track 3, mono track.

An example of how good an image can be yielded if you just work hard enough to fix 4k77’s shortcomings.
no power windows, no qualifiers. pure full frame manual cc. and amazing grain reduction and regraining. not to mention the hours of manual cleanup.

Looking at each of these photos and video clips, it’s clear that you have managed to extract a lot more detail that was previously obscured. Nicely done! 😃
