Yeah, I think I'll try to get that "hack" lined up to complete the "Story Of" trilogy if I can ! Seriously though, your title crawl pushed this thing over the top as far as I'm concerned. Without it, the whole edit would have seemed a little lacking. Like I've said before... How can it be Star Wars without a crawl? Awesome work...

cbaka, if the pars won't work for you, why don't you take advantage of a free trial from one of the premium usenet providers. For example, Giganews offers a free 3-day trial with up to 1GB. If you cancel before the 3 days are up, it will cost you nothing and you should be able to get the rar you need. I've used Giganews for a while and I love it. I used to have the $25/month unlimited account, but since segaflip slowed his posting, I've switched over to the 25GB/$12.99/month account. There really is no point of trying to get things from usenet without a premium provider. It will only frustrate you and annoy others (not me) when you complain that parts of posts are missing when, in fact, they are not. Good luck!

I posted TSOSW using Giganews and it shows up as 100% complete there and with binsearch.info.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words. I'm glad everyone's digging it. I think it turned out pretty good. But when you're so close to something for SO long, you lose perspective. I'm actually kind of getting pumped up to start Empire now, but I told myself I'd wait until the OUT is out (no pun intended). Anyway, hopefully this will make it to myspleen soon so more people can enjoy it.

I'd love to read some reviews if anyone would care to do so...

There's nothing like going on a camping trip then unknowingly crossing the border into Canada and getting stopped at customs on the way back into the States with no I.D or passport and a bag of weed and a pipe in the car. That's what happened to some friends and I this weekend.


I'd like to have seen the jedi mind tricks going on in that situation! What happened?

Final Cut Express is limited to working with DV source material, hence the title "Express". I moved from iMovie to FCE. When I finally decided that I didn't want any limitations imposed on me, I ponied up for Final Cut Pro and have been happy ever since. Seeing as how you already have FCE, I'd recommend this training dvd to get used to the Final Cut workflow. That dvd is for FCE 1.0 but would be more than good enough to get you comfortable with the interface. The FCP and FCE interfaces are practically indentical. Good luck.

You need to rip the dvd files to your HD with MacTheRipper (free). Do a macupdate.com search for it. Don't use handbrake. It's a compression app. You don't want to start with futher compressed material. Use MacTheRipper to rip the DVD (or the portion you're wishing to use) as one big VOB file. Now use MPEG Streamclip (free, again use macupdate) to export the VOB file into a Quicktime DV file. This file can now be opened in iMovieHD. iMovie uses DV or HDV source files. By the very nature of DV, you'll will be losing quality from your DVD source. This cannot be helped. DV is a terribly destructive codec when it comes to color and chroma. This should get you going with iMovie. If you want to maintain the best possible quality, you'll have to step up to the plate and get Final Cut Pro and use a lossless codec. Use MPEG Streamclip to export the VOB to Apple Animation codec or use the 3rd party SheerVideo codec. You'll need LOTS of disc space and a decent mac. You'll find that you're going to hit the ceiling pretty quickly with iMovie if you're wanting to do any serious editing. I'm not trashing iMovie. It's great for what's it's intended, home movies from miniDV camcorders. Good luck and keep us informed of your progress.
