Editdroid's SW 1977 DVD (Mysterious 720p Anamorphic LD Preservation?) (Released)
Time

No, haven't watched it all. I can't really compare things properly right now anyway, as the screen on my TV has developed a [quite possibly] permanent garish pink tint. The blues pop, but every shade of green looks pinkish gray. And so it's a little easier on the eyes, I've lowered the color quite a bit and boosted the brightness too. Quite annoying. I do have another TV that's working properly, but I don't think I'd use it for any serious comparisons. (and they're "just" CRT, anyway)

apparently this audio is not as important as I once thought, only 2 people to check it out for me,hmmm.

Um, it's more like a lot of people just don't know about that stuff. Don't worry about it. The ones that do check it out would likely give you far more useful feedback than if, say, someone like me tried. ;)

Ah, did you mean muenster? (I do see people spell it both ways, though)

Or Munster as in...

Kidding. At any rate, nice to see you around.

Info: - Greedo &amp; Jabba subtitles, theatrical placement and fonts -

Just downloaded that ROTJ file. Yowza! It's like Firefox forgot how to block pop-ups for a minute. I got around 6 of them all at once! :p Edit: am now downloading the SW one and no pop-ups. I guess it smartened up quickly. Heh.

Anyway, they both look good! Sharp text, but not too sharp. ;) Can't tell for sure if that "TV safe zone" issue CA is talking about would be an issue or not without seeing it on my TV. I think it would be ok, though. I'm looking at it on a 4:3 monitor and would watch it on a 4:3 TV, so it should fit the same, right? And there's plenty of room.

The Empire Strikes Back &quot;1980 Theatrical version&quot; Reconstruction - Adywan (Released)

Nice to hear from you again, David. I was wondering...if you wanted more discs, can the same person get them for you, or are you allowed to have someone here send you some?

I ask because, although Ady has only done ESB for now, dark_jedi has already completed a cleanup of the entire OT using the GOUT versions as a basis and his work has been excellent. His next versions (version 3) could very well be the best GOUT cleanups yet. (especially as regards audio tracks) Besides, it's always nice to have options. :)

Let us know.
