Is it just me - or are there no stars in this version of star wars.
There are no stars in the scroll even if i crank the luninace and contrast up.
The picture looks very dark.

I took a look at it earlier today, and I experienced some odd video distortion at the end. Anyone else have this issue?
Had the same problem. The engines of the Falcon where distorted and part of the fleet and the end credits.
Needed an i7 to play smooth. The data rate in the noisy parts on Hoth are very demanding. After that my dual core plays the vid mostly smooth too.
Made an AVI 13GB recode. I´m downloading the 720p now for correction of the last scene.
PS: for recode i used good old VirtualDUB.
(The other simpler solutions didn´t work. - Where not able to decode the Video right.)
Christmas Release ?
:)
I´ve tried to capture the Faces LD´s with a Pioneer DVL-700 and a ISCAN VP50 upscaling to 720p connected to a AVerMedia Game Capture II captureing in MP4 with a very high bitrate. But the results did not impress me. The Picture looks good on the Epson 9000 though. But the big LCD´s have a too harsh contrast, exposing the shortcommings of the LD format.
Thank you - must wait till I get home today.
Will someone put it on spleen?
Thank you Harmy for your great work.
Manny people are complaining about the too bright scenes and on my TV they really looked odd. But on my beamer (TW 9000) they look not so bad. Maybe the circuits in modern TV´s do their part in making things worse?
Sounds great. Thank you.
I like your work. I´ve watched the Puggo Grande many times in my home cinema.
I have a full HD beamer and my screen is 4,30m so a HD Version would be nice.
Seeing theese films this way is almost time travel back to the 70ies.
Can´t wait to see the new one.

And of course I need to watch the whole thing on DVD to make sure I didn't miss anything else, and that the sound synch is solid.
I thought there would be a HD version.
I even remember you saying that you redo the Puggo Grande in HD.
Have you dropped the HD-Version or are you just doing the DVD first?
But the scanlines are a lot more obvious.
Why would you like to add black bars? As said before, it´s not necessary in MKV. The test video looked great on my PC aside from the pulldown. In my opinion it only would blow up the file size and make it more complicated to edit the video or using anamorphic lenses on beamers etc.
But if there´s a good reason to do so maybe you could do a version without.
Today I compared the NTSC Faces LD of ROTJ with the PAL DVD of the GOUT and it seems to be the same master. The dirt and aliasing artefakts where the same. So I don´t think there is much to gain from using the PAL release. Perhaps they just used a different filter than the NTSC release.
I´ve tried your script this week and must say the result is very impressive.
But there is one thing that bothers me: Is there no filter which adresses the aliasing. The broken lines on the blokade runner or 3CPO´s neck and sometimes R2D2´s head. I´ve the impression the aliasing ist better already but there are still some scenes wich look pretty bad.
