So, I don’t know if anyone has discussed this yet, but I noticed on Jedi 2.5’s isolated score track that some of the lyrics in Lapti Nek play in the wrong order then they do in the film normally.

Also, out of curiosity, how did you guys manage to isolate Lapti Nek in the first place?

I think it’s the version from the soundtrack or the one that was released as a single. It happens to be different from the one that’s in the film itself.

But the version on the soundtrack has completely different vocals by a different singer. The version in despecialized’s isolated score has the film version’s vocals, just in a different order. That’s not how it was ever released to my knowledge.

Oh my god, so get this: The audio and video files weren’t imbedded inside the epub at all, nor were they at all included with the Kindle for pc release. I had to get a program called iTools to look inside my iPhone, and somewhere inside the Kindle folder there was a big folder with all the mp3 and mp4 files just sittin’ there. Perfect for Vegas.

Thank you for your help, schorman13 ^-^

This project has been quiet for a while. I hope it’s still going…

at the begin you can see people in the background of the ship.
are the missing scenes from the bluray?there many with very low quality.
there is a cutting error at 3:26 when the ship is stop .at the next scene you see the animation of the entrance to the planet,but this is when they land with the small ship.
and i´m sorry for my bad english…

1 I’m sorry, I don’t know what you mean by that. When? Did I make an error?

at time 00:09 to 00:16 in the background from the shipp are people visible.

Oh, oh, okay I see it now. Well, that’s because it’s a behind the scenes shot before they finished the special effects entirely. I did toy with adding a starfield and it worked pretty well, but I’m not mad keen on altering the footage that’s already there.

To be honest, I didn’t even notice it before you pointed it out, and there’s not much I can do about it besides altering the footage, something I don’t want to do. So personally I think it’s fine as it is, but thanks for pointing it out 😃

2 The scenes are from the 1999 legacy dvd, and the 2003 director’s cut on dvd. All the new added footage is from various documentaries released on the blu ray bonus disc
3 The way it’s cut in the film has the shot of Dallas saying “Prepare to disengage from platform”, then the next shot is the computer screen. So I put the new shot of the ship stopping before Dallas says to disengage. And I couldn’t remove the shot of the computer because it has audio of Lambert counting down, and it wouldn’t have worked.

So, here’s the extended transmission and landing scene I promised.

I’m pretty happy with how it is right now so this is most likely how it’ll appear in the finished edit, but any suggestions would be appreciated. 😃

Only thing is that the landing goes on for so long I had to loop the music at one point, but I think it works well enough.

Well, I managed to strip my amazon copy of it’s drm and convert it to an epub file (I don’t know if that would be necessary for what I’m trying to accomplish). That’s all that requiem would do for the Apple versions, right? How exactly would I go about getting everything as files I can uses for editing is sony vegas? Or can you direct me to some forum or thread that explains how?

So, yeah, I guess the title of the post is pretty self explanatory. How can I rip everything from the extended ebooks I got off amazon so I can actually watch them on my computer and use the footage in fanedits?

So vegas is giving me shit with framerate stuff and I gotta work on fixing that… After I manage to get it working I’ll make the extended transmission deleted scene and extended landing scene and put it on vimeo or something.

Alright, so luckily I was able to recover everything from the old hard drive.

Oh jeez… Okay. Sorry about this, everyone.

To start, I am the original one who started this topic. Quarltonbanks. But, uuuuuh… I lost my account information. So, here I am, new account.

So story: Started the edit, finished about 95% of the edit. Then the laptop I was doing it on died outta the blue so I didn’t have a computer to edit on at all. I finally have a good new computer that I can do editing on, soooo yeah.

Only problem, all the progress I had made is gone. But I’m going to try to retrieve all the sources (documentaries, deleted scenes, multiple cuts of the movies) from the old hard drive and start from scratch on this computer.

I think starting from scratch will be really good, because I’ve learned a lot about editing since I started the project.

The thing is, if I’m not able to get all those sources back, this project will really be dead. I can’t find any of the torrents I used to get all deleted scenes and documentaries. And though I own all the dvds and blu rays, I’ve never been able to rip them myself. Handbrake and the like never seem to be able to detect all the files and it’s all very frustrating and bleh.

So, yeah. If and when I get all the sources back, I’ll get to work once again on this.

Again, I’m deeply sorry for leaving anyone following this hanging for so long.
