Are these the two Omnibus did regarding the making of Episode 1, and George Lucas in general, as it would be great to see these again - unfortunately my copies are on long-play VHS so are worse than yours!

How did you get hold of a library copy from the BBC, and would they supply on Digi-Beta



Yes these are the episodes you mention. No the BBC will not release a Digibeta to the general public. I think the only way of getting hold of a copy in that format is by knowing someone in the BBC library who doesn't mind running off a copy without logging it.

Just to prevent this thread becoming an authoring/PUOP/DVD Shrink thread, I put in PUOP's to prevent for example chapter skipping to the next title which doesn't necessarily give the most professional presentation. That may sound anal but that's the way I present my discs. I never block the top menu button though, so you can always return to the menu I intend you to. PLUS there is a NO-COMPRESSION option in DVD Shrink. The only people I send original discs to are the kind people who post them for me. If you are downloading the titles then reencode them then burn them. That way you don't waste any media.

The latest news.

bh008 should be available via myspleen and usenet in the upcoming week or two. Thank you Metallaxis and Segaflip. It should also be available to all you guys down under and around via Klokwerk next week. PM him if you want a copy.

I've just uncovered some more old recordings. I've found the two Omnibus specials from the BBC which I recorded on SVHS. The quality is pretty good bearing in mind it was recorded from an analogue signal. Unfortunately they are both 14x9 aspect but I've yet to find an original 16x9 copy. I even borrowed a library copy from the BBC which was worse quality than mine but still 14x9. They will be released sooner rather than later as I want to get some more retro stuff out. I also found the UK Fan Club guide to Episode I. I might release this with a DVD-ROM section featuring disc images of the Galactic Comlink CD's they gave to members. I also want to release ash595's excellent copy of the Magic & Mystery show. I was thinking of releasing my digisat recordings of the BIography Channel shows but It looks like Segaflip's beaten me to it. If anyone really wants me to release my versions, let me know. I also have the Japanese DVD of the George Lucas Biography Channel doc. I am contemplating doing a release of it but it is commercially available, and it would be dual-layer. We'll see. I also have a BBC doc on Joseph Campbell and the Star Wars or Bust short films which will find their way on to something.

Now the bad news.
On Wednnesday I am flying away on business which will last until late December. I'm assured I have broadband access out there so I should be able to keep in contact and maybe find some time to author while i'm there.

Anyway keep the posts coming. The more support I get the more I get the urge to release!

regards

Fantastic releases. Takes me back to my childhood and all the good days. Can't wait for some more releases. Sorry if you've already been asked this but any chance of the PSD file you use for your covers as I want to make a 4 disc case for both sets as it looks fantastic. Wouldnt mind redoing some average artwork for other fan releases int he great style of your covers.

Cheers in advance and keep up the good work

Sithlord


Thanks for the kind words. I may include a babyhum construction kit on the next release.

Hi there! I'm downloading bh00x series, and I was wondering if anybody could help for seeding (only 1 seeder for bh002 and bh003...)
Thanks in advance!


If you're not having much luck with the torrents of the early releases I seriously recommend Usenet.

Plus all discs for seeders, usenetters and distributors went out this morning.
