Ah, sorry then, that wasn't my intention :P. I just wanted to say it would be a great addition, but nobody is forced to upload it just for me. In fact I can't thank you enough for all the efforts you guys are making to preserver Star Wars...
Sorry, what do you mean?
So this MKV does not have lossless sound?
I would want a MKV with lossless sound, but I don't want to redownload the entire MKV So a release with only the audio would be fine.
God ******* dammit, Harmy, you did it again!
EDIT: Why Luke's saber is blue in that pic? Shouldn't be white?
My upload speed is close to 100KBps and I will continue seeding it when I finished downloading it, hope it helps :)

I'm only getting around 9KBps on the MS torrent. Perhaps I should try the original uloz.to links again?
Mine is downloading between 10KBps and 600KBps.
Nice to hear that, there were some visible crushed blacks in the first release. Can you please tell me one example of completely crushed blacks that Harmy was unable to fix it?
Hey guys, I have a question. Harmy has used a fade-free Technicolor print of Star Wars, so we can assume his restoration is 99,99% perfect in terms of colors. But what about crushed blacks that are present in the 2004 master used by Lucasfilm for the DVD and Bluray releases? Do you removed them with your magic skills, Harmy?

I don't know what MD5 is but the uploader for kickass and bay told me he had to remove some files from the subtitle folder because with them the torrent didn't work. Those files are basically inconsequential to the release.
MD5 and SHA are used to check the integrity of a file. If two files has the same MD5 or SHA sum, then they are the same file byte per byte. If they doesn't match, they are not the same exact file.
They are useful for security and cryptoanalysis, and many software developers like Microsoft and Linux distros publish the MD5 and SHA sums of their releases.
Minor nitpick: Hash collisions are unlikely, but can occur, as non-"perfect" hashing algorithms are surjective functions. That is, it's rare, but you can have two files hash to the same value. This is less likely with MD5 and the SHA family than, e.g., CRC-32.
Yeah, but those collisions are even more rare with better algorithms like SHA256 or 512. MD5 has some security flaws that were discovered some years ago, but it should be fine for projects like Harmy's restoration.
EDIT: What's happening with my avatar?
EDIT2: Nevermind, it's fixed now.

My god, that BD screenshot, with that digital noise reduction and weird colors look like crap. I think there are some crushed blacks too.
Glad to hear that, Mavimao. That shot in v1 was too annoying. And thank you Harmy for the upcoming v1 vs v2 comparison :)
EDIT: Oh, Tehparadox, nice, I'm a registered user of that site
Hi, I just registered here to say thank you, Harmy, you were our only hope to see the theatrical, truly unaltered Star Wars, and now you're uploading a better release! You have said the old v1 release is laughably bad compared with this new release. Can you please take some screenshots of the film frames with the biggest difference in quality and reconstruction? My only problem with v1 was the GOUT shot you used on Mos Eisley right after the encounter between the heroes and four Stormtroopers, but you said you couldn't do anything better...
Sorry if this has been asked before, but how will we able to download this new release? By PM?
