Hey, you've probably already answered this but I can't search the thread, so I'll just ask - as well as cleaning up the video, will there be a 5.1 audio or DTS mix? These seem to be lacking on any of the original trilogy sources.

Thanks

EDIT: OH, there we go... I see the search function. lol, I don't come here often.. please disregard this question if you've already answered it.

Hey, thanks! What's the quality of digital broadcasts? Anyone got any screenshots?

Also, where can I get one? I'm actually only gonna need certain scenes (the original Vader-Emperor scene from ESB, for example). Although if the quality is THAT good, then I could just make it into a DVD... I doubt it'll be the same quality of the 2004 DVDs, though.

Just to throw this out..

Has anyone got a copy of the SE that's as close as possible to DVD quality and, obviously, in widescreen?

And on that note, do any of your versions have the 5.1 DD mix? Actually, if there's anyone who just has the sound in ac3, I'll take that, too. Feel free to PM me.

Thanks!

I'll do it! I've still got it on my HD! Someone else will have to do it for the other ones, though, because I haven't got them. I'm currently downloading the Reinventing The Wheel ESB from there, though. It's going really fast. I can't wait to see it again! It's my favourite and it's been 7+ years since I've seen it.

It's actually very good, although not perfect DVD quality, it comes pretty darn close. I watched it last night on my crappy LCD laptop screen. The sound is also pretty good (I was using headphones, though) and it had lots of details I missed. It was weird seeing the Original version because I've only seen it maybe one time (when I was extremely small), my childhood was really with rthe 97 Special Editions.

On that note, I'm heavily considering doing my own set (*gasp*) to recreate the 97 SE (except for the bits that mess with characters and drama), as that's from my childhood. I still have my dusty ol Pan and Scan (eww) VHS set of it, too. I have to do some reading about DD 5.1 and learn how it works first, plus read about some things, collect a list of sources (there's no need to recolour sabers; I'll use what others have done if they'll let me).

I figure it's worth it since no one has done much with the 97 SEs and I'd love to see the version from my childhood in glorious 5.1, anamorphic, DVD quality. From what I've read, the 2004 DVDs are just edited to fit the prequels, which I didn't even really like. Alas, though, I'll have to pick up a copy because it's required source material.

I love messing around with video so this ought to be a learning experience... and fun! *runs off to read stuff*

Hello everyone; I’m a noob. This, as you see, is my first post, though I’ve lurked here for a couple days.

Anyhow, I’m no sound expert (although I do have access to all the programs needed to make my own DVD set; I doubt I will, though), but I’ve heard people vaguely mention the possibility of makin a 5.1 DD mix for the original trilogy (perhaps a combination of the 35mm and the 70mm to fix those messed up music cues in ESB).

Is this even possible? Would anyone be interested in trying it? Also, don’t we have a 5.1 sound mix of the SEs from Dark/Sega’s LD transfers? I think at least one other person made a fan edit of ANH with a 5.1 DD mix.

I hope no one has mentioned this before; I did a search and didn’t find anything.
