TMBTM last visited his blog website on April 14, so likely give him a week or so for response here.
I think he still likes Star Wars?

Found TMBTM blog website and asking him now.

This is what I get when I use Media Info for the properties of this DYRL LD wav.
Can you make sense of this?

Hi Silverwook:

I know high school French and can use google translate, but TMBTM fan editor lives in Quebec, Canada and is fluent in French. Do you want to ask TMBTM (the man behind the mask) fan editor if he can make some inquiries on this Ewoks 16mm film to track down the new owner to see if s/he would like to participate in a Star Wars film preservation?

Would the SW Prequels Fan Edit Care Package of deleted scenes on myspleen be updated with these new updated Prequel scenes?

After recently reading The Art of Star Wars script book, my memories of watching Star Wars in Winnipeg for the first time are confirmed that at least the Biggs scene at Yavin base was exactly what I watched and never saw again in the subsequent re-releases!

I would be interested in seeing this version, too!
Thanks!

Has nobody seen Adigitalman’s movie version of this excellent Genndy cartoon series?
It’s a great lead up to SW episode 3 Revenge of the Sith!

And one more thing,
where’s the blu-ray for this cartoon!

Hi Silverwook:

Can you track down that guy who did buy the Ewoks movie films and ask him if he would like to participate in a digital film preservation project?

https://www.bd-cine.com/fiche.php?id=16318

Those films will deteriorate and be unwatchable eventually and then no one will be able to get an HD version!
But, not like the SW holiday special. That SW show must remain as an obscure DVD fan preservation for the sake of humanity.

If the D+ “Empire of Dreams” documentary is upscale in parts and HD in parts, then would somebody be able to swap out the upscale scenes with fan edits like Harmy’s despecialized or the fan SW film preservations?
That was a really good, thorough SW documentary!
Even The Beginning documentary showed a lot about the production process (warts and all) of the Prequels unlike any SW documentaries in this new Disney sequel era.
The Beginning documentary would be better seen and preserved in HD, too.
More fun hobbies for SW fans to keep busy with!

I wonder if Adywan knows about this for his SW Revisited projects? He just picked up the 4K SW boxset this week!

If I get what you’re saying is that season 23 episode: “Holidays of Future Passed” was supposed to be the final episode of all The Simpsons if all the voice actors walked off from their contract negotiations?

https://screenrant.com/simpsons-ending-final-episode-holidays-future-passed/

Did somebody already say that you could do this final Simpsons season like X-Files, where the 1st episode and every other other episode would be continuity stories that show how characters develop or die along the way to lead to the final episode? And then every other episode would be the best of the Simpsons shows after season 23 or something?

I have hardly watched The Simpsons since Phil Hartman has been gone. Not the same show to me.
But I would watch this final season!

I’m not sure if the Simpsons: Embiggened fan edit project would also be helpful in making sure that the Simpsons episodes are unedited?
http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/The-Simpsons-Embiggened-Edition/id/55848

I just read Zarius’ post on this thread.
Maybe, the Simpsons has more than 1 final episode like “22 Short Films About Springfield” 21st episode of 7th season?

I could not find Zarius Simpsons movie fan edit on fe info, so I would like to see that if it could be a possible final episode for the “final season” of The Simpsons,thanks!

This looks awesome!
The Age of Resistance reached new heights for puppetry!
I enjoyed that show a lot and look forward to new episodes with
a possible Garthim War.
Put me down for the list of people that are keen to watch your fan edit.
Thanks for doing this!

PS
Is there anybody still working on a fan edit for Dark Crystal
that uses the original soundtrack that has the original Skeksis language?

Would the TV version like Jorge’s fan edit movie version of Duel?

Are you talking about the Uncut Total Recall- The Mind-Bending edition USA Region 1 BD, director approved version? Or are you looking at making an extended cut version of Total Recall. I bought this version, but I haven’t watched it yet. I forgot all about it until I saw this thread. My recall is not so total.

I agree. The theatrical version was way better than the uncut explicit version. I would definitely watch your repaired theatrical version when you’re done. Thank you!

I am watching this one with great interest.
The Harryhousen Limited Edition BD collections from the UK are just too expensive to me even though these discs are chock full of extras. I hope you can keep up with your Harryhausen project!

Coolness!

I was reading about how the last avatar anime was up-scaled to 720p and colour-corrected, but I have not figured out how to do it myself.

https://www.reddit.com/r/TheLastAirbender/comments/54gi3l/atla_avatar_remastering_project_update_2/dam9diq/

Or even Neat Video stand-alone or video edit plug-in can be used for
up-scaling and some digital noise reduction.

And then there is AVCHDcoder for simple BD menu-making of HD video and
audio.

Thank you davextreme!

Macross LD audio and even more Macross audio files are available.
PM me with your email for web-links.

Do you remember a whole lot of Macross audio?

1. DYRL AC3 LD
   (DYRL part 01 to 04 RAR Sync’d to Remastered;
   DRYL side part 01 and part 01 non-Sync’d)
   Dolby Surround Stereo
   PILA-7008
   .wav and .flac (2 parts each)

2. DYRL Perfect Edition AC3 LD
   (DYRL 01 of 06 to 06 of 06)
   Dolby Surround Stereo
   BEAL-448
   .wav and .flac (5 parts each)

3. DYRL Analog LD
   Stereo
   (DYRL Analog STEREO Side 01 and Side 02)
   SF078-5022
   .wav and .flac (2 parts each)

4. DYRL Analog English LD
   Mono
   (DYRL Analog MONO Side 01 and Side 02)
   TLL-2084
   .wav and .flac (2 parts each)

5. Flashback 2012 AC3 LD
   Stereo
   (FB2012 Side 01)
   BEAL-1332
   .wav and .flac (1 part each)

6. SDF Macross DYRL Movie LP
   (01.m4a to 04.m4a)

7. DYRL 5.1 split into MONO wav files
   (28 parts, WinRAR)

8. Two Spanish DYRL dubs

9. One Swedish DYRL dub

None of these audio files have been sync’d with the new DYRL BD video. The new BD DYRL does have the Director’s cut 5.1 audio from the last BD with its edits, the Special Edition Dolby stereo PCM audio and the theatrical MONO PCM audio.

I have the LD audio files, but the files have not been sync’ed up to any video because I was waiting on what was the latest DYRL BD. The new DYRL BD is 13.9 seconds longer than the Director’s Cut DYRL BD due to video branching and so any LD audio files or subtitles sync’ed to the Director’s Cut DYRL BD would need to be adjusted for the longer video.

http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=43028&page=6#entry1253218

This new DYRL BD has all the bells and whistles I was hoping for minus the English Dub and English subtitles. It has mono, stereo, 5.1 and commentary soundtracks (Japanese only). It has branching video for theatrical and special edition versions with the deleted scenes fully restored and further upgrades in video quality. My copy of the DYRL BD is awaiting me at the post office to confirm the audio quality in comparison to the LD audio files.

In one way, I am a little bummed out that I spent a lot of time and money in preparation for this project, but at least someone more qualified and official made this BD happen and very likely did a way better job than I ever could.

I can package the non-sync’ed LD audio files as is and upload to Mega for next week.

Perhaps, I could do a simultaneous viewing video of each version of DYRL from Special Edition DVD to the newest DYRL BD to see if there is any room for improvement of video or colour by mixing and matching video?

Or maybe just put together the abominable Clash of the Bionoids HD restoration?

Not only is the new DYRL BD unedited, but the original mono soundtrack is on the disc, too. So, it looks like this project is closed. Good news for the fans because the director actually did listen to the fans!

An updated DRYL BD will be sold in January 2016 through Amazon Japan or CD Japan. Supposedly, this new DYRL BD video will have improved video and will include a director’s commentary. No details on what audio options will be included with this DYRL BD. English subtitles do not look to be included, but I keep hoping.
Also, there are no details for this DYRL BD on whether the two blurred scenes will be included as a non-blurred extra or re-incorporated back into the movie.

I did put in my pre-order for this new DYRL BD, so that just delays this project a little bit longer. In the meantime, I need to figure out how to get all the un-compressed video files into lagarith RGB 10 bit avi because that will allow the colours to be accurate and prevent compression errors for final encoding into an mkv or BD.

The current DYRL BD video is :

Format : AVC
Height : 1 080 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 16:9
Color space : YUV
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0
Bit depth : 8 bits
Scan type : Progressive

The remastered DYRL DVD video is:

Format : MPEG Video
Bit rate mode : Variable
Bit rate : 7 912 Kbps
Maximum bit rate : 9 800 Kbps
Width : 720 pixels
Height : 480 pixels
Display aspect ratio : 16:9
Frame rate : 29.970 fps
Standard : NTSC
Color space : YUV
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0
Bit depth : 8 bits
Compression mode : Lossy
Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.764

There is a discussion on the Macross World forum about the re-issued DYRL BD.
http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=43028
So far, there has been noted that the DYRL remastered DVD video is much sharper
in some scenes than the 1080p DYRL BD.

Has anybody gone into detail to compare the remastered DRYL DVD video with the
DYRL BD?

I might need to do a comparison video for myself with remastered DVD, theatrical DVD and
the DYRL BD.
