<em>SIX</em> fantastic brand new preservation projects..... (Released)
Time
Rikter you got PM,and i have also started re-capturing the Japanese Special Collection(I have my own set now,dont need sega's,he probably wouldnt lend them out again LOL)now with the NEW equipment i have(pioneer cld-79 elite)and alot of new software and help from our own Moth3r(via email,he has been tremendous help so far,thank you Moth3r)i want to take the captured video,and crop out the black bars,where the Jap text is,then re-center it,and encode and maybe mild filter,hell if i can figure out this anamorphic thing i would rather do that,seeing as how i have a widescreen TV myself,but that might be wayyyyy out of my league,i am hopefull i can do this,i really like the looks of the video from this way better player and the CCE encode template i got really makes a difference,ALOT better than TMPGEnc Plus.
So if any one has a guide on any of the above i would love links or anything helpfull,i am going to be devoting ALOT more time than i used to to these projects,plus i have learned alot more from alot of very helpful peeps here,not much help at doom9 though all they reply is "search"
the title of this would be:
Star Wars Japanese Special Collection Trilogy : Jap-Less Edition
i also want to give credit to Boba Feta,because he is actually the first one to bring this idea up to me
i may also re-do some of my other releases,i done know
sorry for the rambling

Info Wanted: OT laserdisc chapter point times
Time

Just wondering if any one has this or a link to this,i thought i ran across it before and never saved it,i am looking for the chapter points in ANH,ESB and ROTJ,the actual times where the chapter should be placed,it sure would make it easier, than actually watching the whole thing and placing them LOL.
thanks in advance

Ok Russ and anyone else who is interested,i have SW "incredible shrinking ratio" & "fixed versions" Done,but what i want everyone to realise is this,i think there is a reason NO ONE used these for their releases,ALL these OLD ld's DO NOT look and sound that great,now Rikter might disagree because he is into making SL and DL versions of 1 of these sets,which is fine,but the ONLY sets that really look good are the "FACES" set(well kind of looks good)and the "Definitive Collection" and the "1997 Special Edition"so if any one gets copies of any of these please keep this in mind,so far i am not impressed with the quality,but I still LOVE the fact that they are going to be preserved,which is what Russ,Grinder and i have intended to do from the start anyways.
