Wow, I didn't think anyone had ever tried ripping that obscure format.

Oh yeah, there are actually lots of rips online. Sorry to get off-topic, but the quality of the D-Theater rips actually is quite impressive to me. They tend to be less compressed than HDTV rips, which suffer from the provider's compression. There are some interesting ones out there, like Alien, which has the original Director's Cut color timing rather than the BD one.

 

I would LOVE to see this transferred in the best possible quality for collectors...I know I'd be watching it.

Star Wars 1977 70mm sound mix recreation [stereo and 5.1 versions now available] (Released)

Cool. Great companion pieces your work is.

What is the bitrate of the 70mm DTS-HD track, hairy-hen? Can it e venbe higher than regular DTS?

Anywho, a 1500kbs dts track will be amazing to go along with harmy's v.2

Can't hardly wait!

 

I believe the "DTS" track that was referred to is the S.E. stuff we've been working on (though I could be wrong). ANH & ROTJ (thanks to Silverwook and whomever he got them from) are in the hands of borisanddoris for processing in to separate channels so that ElDonante can process the DTS.HD tracks from those.  We are a ways off yet when it comes to completion as everyone has other commitments of their own.

In my downtime I've been searching out the DTS discs for ESB S.E..  I'm working on a good lead as I type this.   Maybe when we're farther along we can tie them to a project. I'm sure everyone would like the audio to have all the room it needs to breathe.

Patience will bring good things for all of us......  :)  :)

Thanks to Harmy and Hairy for ALL the work they've put in to what they're doing and thanks to all my com-padres for ALL their work and support.

Cheers

^ Moth3r's PAL set wasn't from the DC but from the French 1995 THX LDs: http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Moth3rs-PAL-DVD-project/topic/1545/

Didn't he use the clv discs and not the CAV.  Someone else on these boards captured the rarer CAV coffret set.

I have always wondered if all the European transfers were from the same masters.  As no one has ever preserved the german releases this is just a guess that they are the same as the french releases.

 

LeeThoroughgood captured the Coffret Set..... :)

Just a note.....I am uploading the final SE audio set I have....for ROTJ.  I should have the links ready later today.

I'm still hoping to see ESB come out of hiding if someone has it.  It will make a great addition to what is already being worked on.

I believe that Ady may sync this SE audio to his color corrected HD Broadcast versions but at this point I'm not sure where he's at in his own projects.  He was at least kind enough to entertain the suggestion from me.

That is all for now.......  :)

So, may I ask, were the 97SE DTS tracks ever ripped then? And did anyone ever sync them to any particular 97SE release (like GKar, Flunk, TB, Reivax or some such)?

Apologies....I've been helping out family and have another family loss I'm dealing with.

In answer to your question.....I've uploaded the ANH SE audio and will be uploading the ROTJ SE audio.  These are straight from the discs I received from Silverwook.  As far as I know....the audio has not been broken down and redone and nothing has been synched to any video....as far as I know.

If it has changed, whomever has done so will hopefully see this and respond.

Cheers

The DTS-6 can be made to play discs without film.  If you wanted to record from it, you'd need a proprietary analog cable (DB25) and a 5 channel recording mechanism.  I really don't think it'd be worth doing things that way.

If the ROTS discs contain the encrypted AUE files, instead of the older AUD files, then the "analogue hole" method is the only way.

They do contain the .AUE files....and I suspect that AOTC might as well.  

I think the encryption was introduced in 2004. AOTC is probably OK.

Moth3r, your pm box is full.....  :(

Star Wars Prequel Trilogy DTS CD ROMs...(First Post UPDATED 08 DEC 2012) (Released)

Here is the update..... I just got done reading a pm from Eldonante.

He has a busy life with a schedule to match.  With that said, he is not able to give an ETA on the TPM audio project.  Considering how well the Jurassic Park audio turned out while in his hands I am more than willing to give him the space he needs to work at his pace.  Patience is how we get the "good stuff".

For those who may want to mess around I know the ISO's of the TPM audio I provided are up in the newsgroups.  Please, feel free to play and tweak at your leisure.

Of course, when there is an update on this...this thread will be updated.

Cheers!!!!

So sad that they were charging money for it....maybe they aren't as educated when it comes to these prints and what could get them closed down.....THIS is why FAN preservation has become so important...and necessary.  It has the biggest and best impact for ALL fans....free of charge.

The ISO's of the 2 disc ANH SE set and the TPM ones have been uploaded for folks who may want to play around.

PLEASE remember to thank whomever donated the SE discs, none, silverwook, borisanddoris, and Eldonante for these opportunities.....without them we would NOT be able to keep this project flowing.

I am just the messenger.

Talk with you all soon.

P.S.

If anyone WITH experience wants to pm me on how to properly work with a DTS-6D in a Windows XP environment I would appreciate it greatly....we've obviously had a generous offer of a capable sound card here in this thread and I do NOT want to let thorr's generosity go to waste.

Cheers!!!!

So folks know, I got a new job and I am in the process of training.  Secondly, I lost my Aunt who was a second mom to me so I was away for services and grieving.

I will be getting the S.E. audio I have to borisanddoris so he can work his magic and get the files to ElDonante so he can work his.

Thank you for ALL the patience we've been extended during this project.  We all have an existence outside the forum (at least I believe ALL of us do, LOL) and the kindness you show will always come back in the finished product...which makes you just as much a part of the bigger picture.

Cheers!!!!

 

I just now read this.  I'm very sorry for your loss.  =(

Your condolences are appreciated greatly.  Thank you. 

Now, bad news first, the job I thought I had acquired is no longer viable leaving me back at square 1, job wise.

Good news is, I am awaiting the arrival of a DTS-6D machine and I've being able to at least upload the ANH SE discs for borisanddoris to start processing when his schedule opens up a bit.  My next objective is to get the ROTJ SE discs uploaded for him when I can get a solid internet connection established again.

We ARE still looking for DTS discs of the ESB SE and AOTC......IF you have them or know someone who does, won't you please consider contributing them to this Audio Archive project....EVERYONE will benefit from it's completion.

I happen to have one.  It is an RME Digi96/8 Pro.  It works with Windows XP.  I am not sure if it helps.  Let me know if I can be of assistance somehow.

Seems like you would want one with a db25 AES/EBU connection, similar to this: 

http://www.lynxstudio.com/product_detail.asp?i=16

Otherwise, you will need some kind of converter.

Well then, were probably looking at a patchwork project for the Sith audio.  So my next question should be .....  are there any audiophile members here that might have some of the signature pieces we need to get this going?  We'd also have to pick someone to do the audio transfer with this type of equipment because I know I don't have knowledge on professional stuff like this to make a solid go at it.

(In Daffy Ducks pleading tone of voice).......Moth3r??????

Any other assistance and/or suggestions, please, bring them in.

Cheers!!!!

Also, I can encode DTS-MA or Dolby TrueHD, but DTS-MA is much easier work with and the app itself is far easier to use.  

So what would be more beneficial to use....the DTS-6 or the DTS-6AD?  AND would something like this be needed?

http://www.fullcompass.com/common/files/11695-Studio%20Tech%20Model%2085.pdf

On the VideoHelp forum I saw this....

i have a DTS-6 player with digital and analog output (and a DTS extended channel convertor also. to play these even on this machine you need a DTS portable generator (which i also have) and know the serial and time code of the clips in question (or the film) ..

Mike,

Strangely....I "just" came across this during an internet search that has given me very little in the way of info on this subject.

http://www.rme-audio.de/download/968pe.pdf

If a DTS-6AD could be connected to an XP computer for processing the audio for ROTS, it would come in handy.  All the other movies mentioned use the .aud format.  Sith may be the only one that uses .aue.
