I used the company DupeShop to thermal print my artwork to discs. Came out perfect and reasonably priced.

Sent you a PM

So it turns out the PCM track upmixes through my receiver to 5.1 surround. No idea that it did that! Anyone with a receiver with Dolby pro logic II will get the full surround sound experience. Hope that clears things up for anyone that was waiting for kk to do a 5.1 mix!

How so? I consider L8wrtrs and Hals to be equal (although I prefer Hals episode III ending much better)

I recently burned kk’s versions to discs and watching it on my TV its hard to imagine it looking better. The skin tones look great to me. Bring on the 5.1 mix!

looks good Dre, your color algorithm tool and skills are awesome! I do like KKs regrading I think he does a great job as well and I’m sure we can agree both are far superior to that official blu ray haha.

Hey kk just saw capablemetal just posted on the spleen new versions of the cinema DTS HD-ma. Not sure if those were the ones you wanted to use for your 5.1 mixes but it looks like the best quality of the 97 ones out there. Hope that helps!  

I'm sure those that were waiting for it to hit the spleen are now grateful..thanks kk!

Nice! Really pleased with how the colours look on the OT (looking only at screenshots for IV and V, but I've watched your RotJ). Looking forward to the 5.1 releases.

My only request, if I may make one, is that with ESB if you could have an alternate version with the McDiarmid-Emperor scene instead (with your wonderful colour correction, of course). Planning a saga watch before the release of VII, and ESB's original Emperor may seem a bit out of place. Maybe even a recut, as ADigitalMan did on DVD, to be closer to the original dialogue but with McDiarmid's voice.

Loved watching your RotJ. The colour was great. Jabba's Palace played out well with the music. Nice to see the original Anakin again. Only suggestion I might level, is that Cloud City seemed awfully lonely being the only city in the celebration at the end. I grew up with the '97SE though, so maybe that's just me. Glad Naboo is gone though.

Thanks for the effort!!

 Kk650 has said that he is done with star wars (besides the 5.1 mixes) so don't expect any video changes. He's been working on these movies for many years and is happy he can take a step back from the saga.

Your ROTJ looks a million times better than the bluray. Just got it off the paradox place and your regrading is excellent. 

Beautiful work kk650! I forgot to ask/make a suggestion but would it be easier for you to just release your 5.1 mixes as audio only and have us mux it in ourselves as a separate audio track for the videos? Just seems like alot of uploading for you!

Amazing that you went back and did a shot by shot clean up for those scenes. much appreciated on this end! thanks for all your hard work.

kk650, are the video aspects changing at all for your 5.1 mixes or keeping anh 2.2, esb 2.2 and rotj 2.15 as the video sources?

Sounds good, thanks for the update!

Is the rotj getting released next week have your 5.1 mix or just 2.0 and then you will do all 5.1's later on?

Huge fan of hal9000's and l8wrtr's prequel edits, but definitely would love to give a "one and done" edit a shot. Sounds interesting.

Looking good!

Any chance of a DVD-9 release once the 5.1 mix is done? my setup is such that I can only get surround sound through my blu ray player, and my blu ray player is such that I can't play files larger than 4gb with it, and my computer is such that I can't burn blu ray. I get that my needs are pretty specific and I'm happy to do it myself if need be, but an AVCHD version would be much appreciated.

 can you just plug your computer into your surround sound receiver? or is your bluray/surround one of those home theater in a box things

thanks so much for the update! 

how are the 5.1 mixes coming along? video wise these look fantastic so far

Haha yup. It seems he is making them as close to 97 as possible, but editing out anything that wasn't great or detracts from the originals. 

oh ok thanks! I was just under the assumption these basically were the 97 ones since they have the least amount of extra nonsense added in as opposed to post 97 editions haha

Anyone know if in ESB is lukes yell when he jumps from Vader edited out? Don't want to download these versions til the 5.1 mix is done. Thanks

Has anyone in here made a cover for a 6 disc blu ray case? Was thinking of maybe putting fanedits for the PT (of course) and harmys as my OT into one 6 disc case.
