Amazing project you have put together here and can’t wait to check it out.

I own the old official DVD release from long ago and also picked up the BluRay set super cheap at a garage sale a few years back, but unfortunately like most of my DVD and BluRay collection, these now just sit on my bookshelves untouched, while I tend to watch the streaming versions for the convenience.

The only issue with my approach is the missing scenes from the streaming versions, which you seem to have attempted to resolve with this edit.

I can’t even imagine how long it took to edit together, minimising the use of the lower quality DVD footage for scenes where it was also partially included in the higher quality streaming/BluRay versions, while making the scenes flow smoothly for viewers, and also subtitling it as well.

Manually adding in and sync up the official subtitles from both sources to your edit yourself would have been painstaking. Not sure if you used an AI tool to assist in the process, but even then would have taken a long time.

Hi all,

Didn’t realise a forum like this existed before stumbling upon it by accident after researching if there were newer official releases out there for shows like Buffy and Friends, where older ones I purchased years ago are unfortunately not perfect.

Doesn’t surprise me that dedicated fans and editors out there have made releases like these a reality through a lot of effort and hard work and then not just keeping for themselves but also sharing these with other fans where official distributors haven’t resolved these issues in a perfect release as of yet.

Really cool to see a community like this exists, for Star Wars, but also other projects, previously believing these only existed on Youtube channels, which I have seen from time to time.

Really keen to explore what this site has to offer and support where I can.

Thanks for having me.
