Project Threepio (Star Wars OOT subtitles)
Time

CatBus said:

There’s a pretty detailed README file included with the project files. That part would be covered in the “Project Threepio’s file naming convention” section.

SW-eng-native.sup: A set of subtitles that cover what most people would want.
SW-eng-sdh-native.sup: A set of subtitles that include SDH (deaf & hard of hearing) audio cues.
SW-eng-alien-35mm.sup: Greedo’s subtitles, for use with preservations that don’t have burnt-in Greedo subs.
SW-eng-match-35mm.sup: A set of subtitles for the rest of the film, designed to look like Greedo’s subs (similar font & style).

SW means Star Wars, ESB means Empire, ROTJ means Jedi. I’d recommend against using SRT files unless you have no other option.

So, in short, -eng-native is probably what you’re looking for, unless you want SDH cues.

quoting this as i found it useful.

would it be fair to say that for non english languages, the -full-compat would be the prefered SRT subtitle, followed by just -full if there is no -full-compat file?

Also, the readme file is confusing me on this part:

native: onscreen text is not subtitled, designed for video with burnt-in alien subtitles
nocrawl: onscreen text is not subtitled, designed for video without burnt-in alien subtitles

those descriptions don’t seem right to me, or else i am just confused…

My cats pissed on my bed last night. They didn’t even have the courtesy to do their business on the fringes; they had to let loose right smack-dab where my torso lies. I was forced to sleep on the couch, which is neither wide nor long nor comfortable enough to accommodate my reclining figure.

The real question is who is the Cat Whisperer who has it in for you.

ah man, i need to pre-order my disc!

i was gonna get the steelbook from best buy to match the rest of my new movies, but they are only shipping the 4K disc, the 1080p you need to pickup in store, and none of the local stores have it? what the heck! must be pushing that 4K disc pretty hard. Maybe i’ll shell out the extra bucks so that i can have it delivered 😄

I ordered the blu-ray version for home delivery, but I did it back in December. I might cancel and upgrade to future proof, but I shot my Star Wars budget on Figuarts Last Jedi Luke and Figuarts Chewbacca.

So I only have my lazy self to blame huh… That’s not surprising.

4K steel book ordered, and will be shipping to my house. AHHHHHHHHH i cannot wait.

WSJ, this is just nuts. It’s really hard to take politics seriously these days.

Why are you talking to the Wall Street Journal?

I thought I was making a joke about dahmaged talking to a newspaper. Oh well.

i guess you were, but you missed my joke, which was about my newly coined expression, which i intend to promote quite heavily, until i lose interest.
