I always thought so too about the LPCM since i don’t have an ac3 demodulator. But i watched the preservation with the Dolby EX track and it blows the 2 channel stereo mix away. It isn’t logical or scientific but i think it sounds better than the DTS cinema tracks and even the blu ray audio.

I’ve always preferred the sound quality of DTS more than Dolby. I wouldn’t think Dolby EX could stand even a glimmer of chance against Blu-ray’s uncompressed audio tracks.

That powercord though, lighting up her dress, I love those moments

Its because Laserdisc has PCM audio, which is why it sounds pleasant.

Thanks

Does Project 4k77 offer the raw scan for star wars or only DNR and no DNR?

No, I don’t think so either

It would be, but I wouldn’t think his copy is all that great to be honest.

The design for Empire is good, but wasn’t what I was expecting.

Interesting! Perhaps Return of the Jedi was manufactured at a different plant?

There might be 3rd party organization that may have made an digital out jack

I’ve seen Japanese copies on Ebay, not sure if they were released in the U.S. or not.

A PAL copy of ROTJ featured in one of techmoan’s videos on Sony 8mm Video Walkman gear.

@Sliverwook, I’m pretty sure Video 8’s were only released in Japan and potentially the UK. The U.S I believe never saw a release. I’m definitely not spending $4000 on three cassettes. I wish I started looking earlier!! Everything was cheaper then. I guess I have to wait until it comes for a reasonable price.

Hi there, anyone know anything about Star Wars on video 8?
Also, does anyone own them? I recently began a collection and want to obtain all the home video formats released for star wars.

Cheers:)!

Only after the criticism do people realize how good the prequels actually are.

Correct! Star Wars was a 2-Disc Set, with Empire cut and Jedi single-Disc Set. The RSO copies are kinda hard to find and at times can be expensive. They’re quality discs!

Not the worst in the saga.

But for some reason, my image from my computer won’t load up here so yeah, awkward. But I assume you know whats it’s going to look like.

In 83’, the first pressings of Star Wars and Return of the Jedi were released in Germany by music label RSO. Each containing a red face:

Star Wars:

Return of the Jedi:

But The Empire Strikes Backs first press however, was released in 85’ by U.S label Polydor and didn’t have a red face:

The Empire Strikes Back:

So, I endeavored to try and re-create the classic album into what original CD should’ve looked like.

Looks like someones being having fun.

But damn, $2 a ticket!!

March 31st 2020, Disney released episodes I-VII and Rogue One on 4k for the first time with matching slipcovers, interior covers, updated discs, and updated content that look like this:

Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace:

Star Wars Episode II - Attack of the Clones:

Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith:

Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope, Star Wars Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars Episode VI - Return of the Jedi:

Star Wars Episode VII - The Force Awakens:

Rogue One - A Star Wars Story:

During this time, we also see TROS seek a 4k release but without a matching slipcover/interior cover (Discs and content are the same as the Skywalker Saga set).

Star Wars Episode IX - The Rise Of Skywalker:

Prior to March 31st 2020, The Last Jedi and Solo already had a 4k release.

Star Wars Episode VIII - The Last Jedi:

Solo - A Star Wars Story:

A few months after the 4k debuts of episodes I-VII and Rogue One, we see a re-issue of TLJ and Solo matching the other movies except TROS.

Star Wars Episode VIII - The Last Jedi - re-issue:

Solo - A Star Wars Story - re-issue:

You’d expect that they’ve also changed the interior cover as well as the updating the content/discs that is currently only available in the complete Skywalker Saga Box set (Excluding Solo because there has only been one release for Solo, hence there cannot be updated content, only interior covers and updated disc label to differentiate the previous release). Wrong! Instead, they’ve slapped the matching cover on the original 4k releases of both films. No matching interior cover, no updated discs, and no updated content. Just the same old stock we saw before. At some point, would there be a matching (slipcover/interior cover/updated content/updated disc) copy of both the TLJ and Solo?

Also,
TROS is yet to recieve the same treatment as the other movies and would there also be a matching copy to complete the set at some point in time?

I’ve checked the links and unfortunately, they don’t show the item I’m after:

https://www.amazon.com/Star-WarsTM-Jedi-Challenges-Lightsaber-android/dp/B07JG8LLBJ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2OX65TOC0FOP9&dchild=1&keywords=kylo+ren+lightsaber+lenovo&qid=1595314094&sprefix=kylo+ren+lightsaber+lenov%2Caps%2C369&sr=8-1

The Kylo Ren lightsaber was an exclusive item sold separate to the set provided in your links. It would explain why it sold for soo much on eBay those months ago. It’s near impossible to find a new copy let alone a pre-owned.

It doesn’t matter I’m in no rush for it anyway. Thanks for the help, appreciate it!!

Thanks for the help! I’ve been checking eBay almost everyday since its release to try and snatch one for myself. The last time I’ve seen a copy was on eBay and I’m pretty sure it was during time span of the official release of TROS. From memory, it was listed for a ridiculous price ($2000 USD) as an auction format. Not sure if it sold but I would never buy it at that price anyway. Amazon US I’ve been checking monthly and have seen no market update. It kept saying unavailable or something along those lines. I would never really check the overseas markets often but now, I guess I should huh.

Thanks! Do you happen to know any international sources I could buy it from?

Anyone know if this is still available? I’ve seen one recently go for $2000 (original price under $100)!

Hi Digitalfreaknyc, nah these are all normal releases of the single. Thanks anyway

Anyone know of this?
Also, does anyone have one that they may not need?

I have been collecting records for years and this is a must have in my collection. Would really appreciate any info on the item or where I could find one, or if one happens to have one.
