You do realize, Cowclops, that the set at starwarslegacy.com will never see the light of day since he is making it solely for himself right?

I would officially shit my pants if I were to learn that a skilled video editor was working on a similar "edit" that would make it's way into distribution. If the reason you decided against it was that it was already being done, I still say go for it. Somebody make one that we can all have.

Sounds like a plan.

Hearing people say how much the LD is behind the DVD in quality sure is depressing.

I still think it might be a good idea to try tampering with De-SEizing the '97 SE. The quality is like night and day between the original, yet not so far ahead that it's impossible to interlace them.

Thanks for the tip, that's probably what the trouble is.

I'm using Windows XP, by the way.
Thanks for the offer, I'll see if I can't get it to download though.

Can anybody else comment on the quality? Is it about the same as the other MagnoliaFan stuff?
And is this a digital re-working of the phantom edit that's been on myspleen for a while, or a different one?

Thanks.

I've been having a hell of a time trying to get the surprise torrent (phantom re-edit).

It refuses to download, it remains "idle". Anyone know what to do with it?

Awesome.

So glad I got a DVD burner. It's burning TCW onto a DVD-R disc right now. The one I got was DVD+R, and my DVD player doesn't like it.

So many DVD folders to download! hehe

Merry Christmas, all!

So it ain't the new Holiday Special mastered from master tapes, eh?

Hmm... that's what I thought a Christmas gift torrent would be.
Maybe.... (this would be awesome if it were true) is it a De-SEized DVD of ANH?

(yeah right)

I don't want to post what I think it is and potentially ruin the surprise.

But if I'm right, then it's definatley worth it.

Hear, hear.

I'm so glad that those of us on the internet who use torrents and Ebay can find the ORIGINAL Star Wars Trilogy, rather than be subjected to this imposter DVD set disguised as the Star Wars Trilogy.

That sounds really cool!

I thought it might have been from the podracer game but that would've left bad audio quality probably. Indeed, the podrace sequence is much better with a consistant musical score. VERY nice work.

MagnoliaFan, would it be allright with you if I try to upload a full DVD folder file of BOTF and TCW? I wanna make sure you're fine with it before I go ahead and do.

Well, my apologies.

They appear to be exactly the same. Sorry about the confusion. I must have imagined it all.

Sorry Rik.

*scrathes head*

I think it may be that I switched to a new DVD playing program for my computer. Let me compare them really quick and then post back...

Lemme check for protocal...

It spells it as "protocol".

About the supposed quality loss... it just seems like the brightness has been lowered (that's good) and the contrast possibly been raised as well (also good).
The sound seems smoother and better equalized too. For example, on Rikter's set when Jar Jar cheers for Anakin after he won the race it cuts out the other sounds and it's all you can hear. It sounds natural and smoother in ADigitalMan's set.

I don't know, maybe I'm just going crazy.

I think AdigitalMan has a better DVD burner than Rikter.

the brightness is a lot better than on the DVD Rikter sent. And the color is much more vibrant and looks just like the official TPM DVD. (No offense or hurt intended, it's just I think he has better burning equipment)

That's it... THE PREQUELS ARE AWESOME NOW!

I just recieved AdigitalMan's new MagnoliaFan BOTF DVD which is only different in that it contains three alternate subtitle tracks along with the original.

One is his take, one is MY take, and the other is a blend of all three.

Not much to really review about, but I like it becasue it offers choice between which subtitles you want. Mine sticks more closer to the original film TPM (to an extent).

Thanks, man. I will *try* to upload it as a torrent file if I can figure out how.

So, that's the DVD burner you own, ADigitalMan? I can already see that it rocks, based off of the DVD I got in the mail today.

heh.

What exactly are the benefits of having an internal drive versus an external?

And how do you install them into the physical hard drive?

(Just making sure I have everything down before buying)

Hey fellow Star Wars fans.

I am looking to purchase an external DVD burner this Christmas.
I've been looking around and honestly, don't quite know enough to make a very informed decision.

Does anybody have any advice or tips on what to choose? I want something external from the hard drive itself, and preferably manufactured by Sony since I know their quality.
Thanks for your help.

It's worth it, Galahad.

OK, I am really not getting this. Sorry, but can you tell me step by step how to get my subtitles into the DVD?

(not the same disc, mind you, but you know what I mean)
