Hey Dude...chill out. It gives me a Pro-logic II soundtrack without needing a Pro-logic II outboard decoder (which I don't have), and the .ac3 file takes up far less space than the PCM file. If you knew what you were doing, you'd see the obvious benefits here.
If you also knew what you were doing, you'd know this is exactly how LFL derived their 5.1 soundtrack for the SE's, rather than from the 6-track masters. As for me, I've been doing months of research and spent hundreds of dollars for this project, and now I have a great looking AND SOUNDING SW DVD of the O-OT.
"The Def. Collection is the same transfer as the faces laserdisc. *sigh* Do you know what you're doing?"
Which is precisely why I asked my question. *sigh* Do you comprehend what you are reading?

Part of the problem with EVERY bootleg that has come out is precisely what you're doing. There's NO reason to remix to 5.1 because it never sounds good. And i completely challenge your statement that what LFL did with the SE's was to remix the regular track to 5.1 like your doing. Completely not the case. They did a complete overhaul of the films soundtrack.
And if you had a great sounding set, they would be in uncompressed PCM instead of your compressed Dolby Digital.
Yes, I comprehend what I'm reading. But obviously someone who has done months of research and spent hundereds of dollars on equipment should know what the hell they're transferring before they do it, no? Or am I just ASSuming something.
