The search function is useless, or maybe I am ;-)
Was there anything in particular I need to think about when I'm muxing new audio with mkvmerge?
And the subtitles, remember something about renaming them and/or put them in another folder?
How much of the BD is left untouched? Or if you will, how much did you have to alter to get as close to the theatrical 77 edition as possible? Nevermind the color corrections
I see, thanks
I can't believe I missed the stereo version either. Thanks a lot hh!
I sampled the new 5.1 70mm the other day it sounds great, the bass is a real joy. But what about the surrounds? Is it all mono surround because it's mostly based on the 93 2.0 mix?
Did the 70mm mix have stereo surrounds way back when? If so, wouldn't it be legitimate to borrow parts of the surrounds from one of the official 5.1 mixes?(Sorry if this been discussed before)
The 97 SE AC3 5.1 LD soundtrack is really really good, and that with low bitrate. I can't imagine how good this will sound in DTS
Damn, there we have it. I always thought the files were corrupted but it might as well be the provider then. hmm.
Thanks for clearing it up, somewhat

I downloaded the old 70mm lossless mix yesterday from usenet. But there were some files missing and I couldn't fix it with the PAR files either.
part 2,3 and 13 is missing. Does this have anything to do with the upload being old, the retention?
Does anyone have the 93 laserdisc 2.0 pcm rips? I've seem to displace/deleted them

Here are some more comparisons between v1.0 and Remastered.
so I also uploaded a folder with all the pictures in their original form (high quality Jpeg):

I recommend watching it as a fullscreen presentation in both cases.
It's not just the colors but it looks much more filmlike with a layer of healthy grain and much more detail.
Seems very promising indeed.

Thank you, Harmy, and happy birthday.
Thanks, also, to everyone else involved.
Now, does anyone know if I should download this from usenet, would I be able to return to myspleen and help seed? That is, will the two versions match?
For the usenet upload the rar files have simply been renamed from Deed2.0 to Fixed_Deed2.0. The par2 files however are different, so you'd need to redownload them at myspleen.
Besides, 28% (50 files) have been uploaded to usenet so far, with approximately 1.5 days to go. So I guess downloading it from my spleen would be faster anyway.
Since I don't do torrents anymore, I gotta ask; why is usenet taking so much longer to upload, too? I'm not in a hurry, just curious

It's no big deal since the new one is coming but it would be nice to mux it with harmy's v2 if there are some delays or whatever.
Do someone know anything about it? Or was it just me having a problem?
I haven't checked yet but do we need a guide for mkvmerge or is it that simple as you guys say's it is?
Harmy said:
OK, it's all up.
Release date 28th August 2012 4pm PDT
Excellent!
Will the audio files be availalbe on usenet in a few days? Or just torrents?
Where can i get mkvmerge?
I'm not that impressed by 640 DD 5.1 so I'm gonna wait for the better one.
(have heard way to much DTS-HD MA on blu-ray so one gets a little picky)

It was actually probably the subconscious driving force behind my study of English :-)
Nice

@budwhite: The aim of Ady's project is completely different, so I don't see your point at all there. I myself am immensely looking forward to watching Ady's ESB:R! I would probably be looking forward to Lucas' next Special Edition, if just out of curiosity, if he released the original in decent HD.
I was just thinking loud and thought that many other people lost some interest as well, with his SE 1080p versions and your's being available
With his(revisited) being stuck in DVD quality as well

How can watch the movie dubbed? I find it quite weird to be on a star wars fan site and to see so much talk about dubs. I mean I understand for the regular joe in france or italy to see films dubbed, but here, among movie fans... it's strange
What if I want to show it to my friends and relatives who don't speak english? They like movies too, why shouldn't they be able to see it?
Dubbing isn't so bad as it is thought of in the USA, IMHO. You guys have terrific voice actors, piss poor dubbers (I've heard them). We have no voice actors (people don't even know what they are) and terrific dubbers (maybe not so much the last generation, but their fathers and grandfathers we brilliant)
Voice acting and dubbing, two distinct (if similar) arts for two different cultures. That's my tuppence worth, anyway.
I'm Swedish and the only thing we dub is (small)children movies.
Well I guess it is what you're used to, to me it would be just like listening to "born to run" with a cover singer backed up by the e street band.
I'm sure it helps a lot if you are good at english. Most folk under 50 could watch a movie without subtitles and get most of the story. That doesn't work in france or italy

Not to thrash adywan in no way but I have zero interest in his fan edits. This is the reason why I came hear in the first place 5 years ago or something. Preservation is the real deal.
I do love what ady has done with color correction, LD audio and of course, the special edition in 1080p but other than that, Harmy pretty much killed the revisited editions
Cool. Great companion pieces your work is.
What is the bitrate of the 70mm DTS-HD track, hairy-hen? Can it e venbe higher than regular DTS?
Anywho, a 1500kbs dts track will be amazing to go along with harmy's v.2
Can't hardly wait!
Damn big for a 720p! I think this is going too look very very good on my 100" screen
Any chance this is making Harmy's deadline in a few days?
