STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>

It never ceases to amaze me how many dickheads are out there, Ady. I've said it before and I'll say it again: they're all just jealous because they don't have the amount of talent in their entire body that you have in your little finger. You have single-handedly produced the best fan edit EVER and nobody can take that away from you. The amount of admirers you have far outweighs the "haters" and all you need to do is look back at all the positive comments over the past 208 pages to know how many people support you. Keep up the good work, man.

Ady,

Personally, I think you've already done more than enough on this edit and since all of your work on it has been documented throughout the course of this thread a commentary would've been somewhat redundant anyway. I think it's best you just put the finishing touches on the DVD9 and take a well deserved break from this edit. Honestly, I don't know how you stayed sane through this whole project as I would've gone mental a long time ago. :)

The video bitrate is already set to the highest possible. It's set to 7000kbps average 8000kbps max. If i push it any higher then some players will have issues with the video due to DVD bitrate limitations. The main video has already been rendered so all i am doing is filling the extra space with what i can.


Ady,

I didn't realize that the video bitrate was already maxed out so that's not an issue after all. How much extra space is left for special features? It sounds like you've already got quite a bit of stuff on there so I'd imagine there isn't much room left. By the way, approximately how much longer do you think it will be before the DVD-9 is uploaded to Usenet? The only reason I ask is because I'm going out of town soon and I won't have internet access for a couple weeks. Just trying to get an idea of the timing and whether I'll be able to download it before I leave or if I'll have to wait until I get back. Take care, mate.

Ady,

I can only speak for myself, but I think it would be best if you don't "squeeze" too much more on to the DVD-9 so the bitrate for video does not suffer. You've got more than enough extras to satisfy everyone already and personally I'm just looking forward to the highest quality video that will provided by the DVD-9. Can't wait to see it, man.

Hempler,

If you could, after you've had a chance to watch the entire DVD please let us know if the whole thing worked on your HD-DVD player. If so, I'll try DVD Movie Factory and strip it down for use on my XA2. I'll still have the full version with menus for use on my other players, but I'd really like to watch it upconverted on the XA2.

I just read Ady's suggestion and was going to give that a try, but I see you beat me to it. I think it's looking more and more like we'll never see this thing work with the Toshiba HD-DVD players which is frustrating, but not the end of the world. Maybe the DVD-9 will miraculously work where the DVD-5 does not. I'm sure that won't be the case, but it never hurts to hope.
