That opening shot of AG just looks FAKE to me. Always has.
In fact, to me, it looks like the same ugly pastel colors that infused the PT and the SE's.
I had asked for it a while ago. No one seems to have it. LOTS of deleted scenes that were never put on the DVD release.
I was going to attend but didn't have anyone to go with. :(
Wish I knew some of you guys "in real life."

I dunno, DVD from 2001 to 2004 was twice as crowded as that, and SW and Indy both managed to do okay.
What are you talking about?
All of those are coming out from October to December of this one year. I'm not talking about several years.
I wouldn't be surprised if they held off on indy this year. Blu-ray is pretty overrun with high profile boxed set releases for the end of this year. There's only so much money to go around for some people.
We're already looking at (rumored or announced): The Alien Quadrilogy, Lethal Weapon Quad, Jurassic Park trilogy, Back To the Future trilogy, Robocop Trilogy.
And that's just off the top of my head...
I could see them pushing Indy to 2011 and Star Wars to 2012 but who the hell knows.

Y'know, 2012 would make more sense as a release date for the bd at this point. Indy was rumored to be hitting the format this year and .... still no announcement. A lot of big catalog titles are hitting this year, but not all of them (for example, still no word on Lawrence of Arabia). 2011 is Raiders' 30th and '12 is Star Wars 35th. If they actually end up remastering the OOT, we'd get it just in time for the mayan apocalypse.
Indy isn't supposed to be coming until Nov/Dec and the rest of the year DEFINITELY hasn't been announced yet. I'd expect an announcement in the next 2 months for them.
Time Warner encodes all of our HD channels so there's no way of capturing a direct stream of it. I don't know if we'll ever see that.
But, regardless, the Hauppauge is the best of the best, IMHO. I use it for everything.

I've extracted CC from TS streams just fine with CCExtractor GUI.
It's still embedded in the video the same way as standard def video. The process isn't very difficult.
But how were those TS streams capped? The Hauppauge re-encodes. This isn't capturing the original stream (which is encoded and impossible).

While I was bootlegging the 30th anniversary ESB presentation in Time Square, a random passerby-er let me know that most of the theaters in NYC have gone digital and all the projectionists are being let go, since you can higher a kid in high school to run the new digital projection systems at vastly reduced prices.
What does this mean. What were you bootlegging?!?
Molly said:
I think ccextractor is capable of pulling the subs out of TSes too.
Right but that's only if they are there in the first place. I really don't think the Hauppauge records them. To be honest, it's never been an issue so I've never looked into it.
Molly said:
My settop DVD recorder preserves the CCs in the VOBs (and you can use ccextractor to convert it to SRT). My old one did also.
Right. I'll be recording in HD, though.
If he wants SD...I don't record in that anymore.
Is closed captioning ever recorded? I don't think I've ever noticed that.
I use the Hauppauge to do a high bitrate cap in AVC.
Hi all,
Time Warner Cable here doesn’t have HDNET movies and there are a couple of movies that I’m trying to get capped in HD. I have the Hauppauge so I’m fine with AVC caps but if you have the channel unencrypted, that’d be hot!
Please let me know. I have about 150 hd channels so if you’d like me to cap something for you, i’d be happy to do it.
I have the HD version and would be happy to cap it for you. What can you accept? I can make a blu-ray for you.

No chance of offering the Jaws Biography special on a regular DVD or DVD-DL? I don't think many of us would have the means to either burn or view the BD version. :(
On a related note, did you happen to record the Biography Channel's similar recent special on Caddyshack? I'd love to get that preserved on disc since it was a wonderful comprehensive doc on the making of the film and better than anything we'd get on a future Caddyshack special edition DVD/BD.
There's already a single layer DVD of it out there and, to be honest, I have far too much stuff on my plate right now to do conversions and re-encodes. Since it's Shark Week, i'm also going to include the Mythbusters Jaws special in HD on the same disc. I'd like to get as much Jaws stuff done this year (for the 35th anniversary) as possible.

I know it's been a while but I'm back on track working on a bunch of things. I just burned my very first Blu-Ray compilation of the Jaws Biography special...along with a Today Show Retrospective. :) Very proud of that.
I'm also going to go through a lot of my older stuff and see what to do. Have to figure out where to seed a lot of it as well. Hoping to get it out for all of you!! :)
RU releasing your Jaws BR also? Would live to see it @ home....

I'm debating. The problem is that you'd have to have a Blu-ray burner to play it.

The Digital Bits has confirmed it will be 2.35:1.

Erikstormtrooper said:I agree. But this has been going on for 33 years. It's not like Prowse just started doing this. Why was it OK up until now?
I suppose the complaints made last year, justifiable though they may be, annoyed Lucas, and he is simply looking for a way to strike back.
Which complaints last year?

That's one amazing list of content, i hope the extra's are in HD resolution also.....
VERY doubtful.

Disc One: Alien
Disc Two: Aliens
Disc Three: Alien3

Link isn't working...
Yeah it looks like they may have put this up too early.
There are/were two different versions of it: one with the documentary and one without. :)
This should make you AN fans happy:

Anyone wanting to download my mix the links are now up on the final fantasy shrine forum (The Blade Runner Soundtrack Ultimate Thread).
This was not my decision but Kirkenshrir's, he took that choice away from me.
I had been considering the FF forums but ultimately i think i would have posted it on the blade runner soundtracks group forum, because that's where i acquired the 2019 copy.
I just downloaded this project and, judging from the first track, it was taken from a PAL source or something because it's sped up. Too bad.
I have no doubt that Focus' version will be the ultimate version. I await it.
