Why don’t they produce a Starwars television series? The fanbase is huge and it takes too long to wait for another Starwars movie. Anyone agree with me?
I assume you mean a live action one?
It could be interesting…
I only have one version of it on 35mm, which was included with v1.0. Almost none of the stars are visible and Poita has confirmed that most of the prints he has are the same. Darth Lucas and Yotsuya have both been working on reconstructing the '81 crawl and flyover using starfields they created themselves based on laserdisc and ESB references, however Poita recently posted a high resolution star field from an '81 print which he had worked some magic on…

Oh right, yeah I’ve found the clip from the v1 SSE release. It seemed a strange choice to splice in a recreation for a project that is otherwise purely based on scanned material, I’d personally rather see the real 81 crawl than the recreated one that contains an amplified starfield (noting what poita said - audiences would have seen a mostly starless picture for the 81 crawl).
Yeah I was kinda thinking the same thing. No strong feelings either way, but including a recreation feels off.
Rob, I’m wondering if simply renaming this project something other than SSE will make it easier to redistribute. The publicity of the SSE seemed to drive Team N1 underground, so releasing an updated version of the SSE seems to imply the team is still around.
True…
Looks like with the issues it might be just as well that its distribution has been hampered.
Eftydub at MySpleen wants to hear directly from Williarob before he will re-enable the torrent.
yeah i hate to bug Williarob with this, but since negative1/rogue1 is bent on not allowing anyone to put the SSE on spleen, it will be necessary.
and yes, there is a silver lining in that the original torrent was disabled, so those who were still downloading, wont have it count against their ratio! i still have one user connected and downloading this morning when i checked, hopefully others were able to finish as well.
Also confirming that the sync issue happens on hardware. But also, I selected the Spanish audio track from the 1981 menu and it just played the English track 1. I will double check and see if I can repeat the error tomorrow.
I saw similar behavior when playing it on Kodi, but i sometimes get weird issues like that so i wasn’t sure. On Kodi i would have to restart the movie, and then i could select spanish and it would play spanish subtitles. so it seems to just be that it doesn’t switch between subtitles once you already have one subtitle enabled? (haven’t gone back to retest though)
The only other menu thing that stuck out to me was that the 1977 button text showed up before the full menu was visible for the 1997 1981 crawl choices. it might be just because of menu lead in time or something and maybe not really an issue, but the fact that i didn’t seen the 1981 text seemed funny to me (sorry i haven’t retested this, and am relying on my memory)
Thanks
That’s what is to be expected with a “drop-frame vs non-drop-frame” issue.
Even more reason to wonder if this issue even exists with a hardware player.
Has anyone found an alternate download for this now that it’s gone from spleen? Tried a mega link which I wasn’t able to get to work.

I’m wondering if it has something to do with the TimeCode in the video, or perhaps a Drop Frame / Non-Drop Frame Setting somewhere, or perhaps both. I marked all the subtitle tracks as “Non-Drop Frame” but I see in the properties Window of the Authoring software that it lists the Start and end times for both Drop Frame and non-Drop frame and that they are quite different. The last subtitle in Drop frame mode is 01:58:50:06, while in non-drop frame mode it is at 01:58.41.08, a difference of about 9 seconds. So, if by the end of the film the subtitles are 9 seconds early, perhaps I need to mark them as Drop Frame?
The subtitle get progressively later throughout the film.
Exaggeration. Which the following sentence even eludes to. You don’t have to be a genius to use such a word.
Yeah, he wasn’t exaggerating. If the armor on his shoulder was obliterated in that manner, whatever did that should have also done the same to the arm underneath.
Conventional armor maybe but we’re talking about armor made out of material we can’t even fathom.
I don’t think it matters if we understand the way the armor works. The fact that something can completely destroy the layer of protection, but only the layer of protection, is quite an amazing feat if you were trying it, and very unlikely to be the result from random damaging event. it takes impressive calibration to pull that off.
burned us to desk
The spelling correction of your mobile creates horrific images in my mind. 😕
oops :p
I wonder if it is just an issue with software players in that it is incorrectly calculating the playtime and not syncing the subs correctly because of that the sync gets off more overtime so I doubt it is related to the to crawl options
Has anyone that burned this to disk tried subtitles on a hardware player?
Seems to be all of them
yeah i see the same issue with the english subs, thats a real bummer. i dont know what it could be other than what was already suggested…
it’s on blurg now.
how does one get on blurg?
I have messaged both Williarob and an admin on spleen, hopefully they can help sort this out. In the meantime it is always available where Williarob posted it.
I’m not seeing it in a.b.starwars on NZBKing. Is it there?
It’s there, try a diff search engine? SSE
For what its worth, I sent the admin who took it down a message. Who knows when they might get it.
As did i
yeah, this drama is tiresome to say the least. i don’t get it at all.
.
Lol, don’t worry about it
Ah, yes, I see them. Looking forward to the BD50 versions!
Any thoughts on using the color corrected A New Hope 2.7 instead of the base Harmy 2.5?
He is using 2.7 as it clearly states in the description
Somebody put it on Uloz…
Or myspleen…
+1
i will up it once i have it if no one has yet at that point (in like 8+ hours). Williarob you planning to post to spleen?
D’oh. no worries man, so psyched about this! (grabbing now)
Nice! i commend you for your efforts, and for your willingness to take our feedback!
I think this guy is trying to live up to his darth jar jar avatar.
