Wow, Belbucus. Synching all of the different audio tracks for Star Wars itself was such a great thing to do. But doing a new isolated score track from scratch that's synched to the GOUT? That's so awesome of you. Thanks again for all these tracks. I have them all sitting here on my external hard drive (waiting for me to track down an NTSC set of the GOUT as my previous win for the trilogy fell through due to a shonky ebayer).

I will have to wait for some filefactory-type links from some kind soul before I can hear this isolated score, but I am curious. Did you use just the 2CD soundtracks as your source? Also, for cues that were not used in the film but presented on the discs did you reinsert these? Finally, do you intend to do similar tracks for Empire & Jedi?

Also, I was wondering if it would be at all worth it sending mallanikkelsen's MP3 of the "Descriptive Audio" for Star Wars your way? I know an MP3 is a horrible source to work from but in the case of the descriptive audio this is the best that's been found so far (and it would be cool to sync it up to the film even as a DD2.0 192kbps track).

C'mon guys. If you haven't got serious suggestions don't clog the thread with purposefully ridiculous ones.

I can't think of any particular cues at the moment, but I do second that suggestion of checking War of the Worlds and Minority Report.

Ash595: You don't happen to have a "JAWS" font do you? No matter where I look I can't seem to find one and yet I know one exists because I've seen it used on other custom Jaws releases.

So you have all of the following:
* In the Teeth of Jaws (UK BBC Documentary)
* Page To Screen: Jaws (US Bravo Documentary)
* New England: Our Way (Rare US 1974 Documentary)
* Jaws: The E! True Hollywood Story

I have yet to pick up the 30th anniversary edition of Jaws - are any of the above included in that commercial release (ie. meaning they won't be included in your set)?

I wouldn't mind taking a crack at covers for the discs.

I might've asked you this before but did you ever get copies of the "Jaws In-Depth" DVDs that someone was making and selling on eBay?

Oh I believe you there. It'll be a while before I get into HD-DVD/Blu-ray though. I live in Australia so there's nothing here for another month or two at the earliest. Then there's the whole "format war" deal. Finally I couldn't really afford the hardware at this point. So I relish watching HDTV stuff as that's the best I'm going to see for a while (disregarding DVDs that upscale well).

I'll see if I can get in touch with the trader who was going to give me those 2 specials.

I've also dug up the low-quality RM file I have that's a WORTV promo for the "Making of Jaws 3-D: Sharks Don't Die" special.

OCP, I have a collection of the Star Wars matte paintings but the Falcon ones I have don't seem to match your description. This one is the closest I have I think....

Of course they're in higher resolution, I just shrunk and resized for preview. I can upload thumbnails of the other Falcon matte paintings if need be. Surely I'm not the only one with this matte painting collection, though. Somebody help out.

I had intended to compile a bunch of material for Jaws 3 & 4 but the trader I was talking to about the "making of" specials for 3 & 4 disappeared.

I do have the short featurette on 3D that's on the Dial M For Murder DVD (well one of the releases). It has interview snippets with the director of Jaws 3 talking about the 3D process.

Which shot of the Falcon in particular did you mean? I ask because I'm sure there are high-res versions of the matte paintings floating around that you could utilise for such shots.

The delay thing doesn't bother me so much. I mean, can't I open the wav files I have and add the delay myself? I guess I just don't want to have to download the 1977 stereo and the 1993 Defcol mixes again. I haven't got ESB or ROTJ yet.

But then I suppose it doesn't matter. If it helps other people then that's good.

Any suggestions on which program to use to simply add 1.017 seconds of silence at the start of the ANH mixes?

Darth Mallwalker provided me with some Filefactory links for 'Belbucus' '77 Dolby Stereo synced to GOUT' for those of us without newsgroup access. There are 3 RAR files that contain a single WAV file (the 3 RAR files being part of a series).

Here are the links:
DS48_DVD.part1.rar
DS48_DVD.part2.rar
DS48_DVD.part3.rar

I've downloaded it and am very grateful. It's nice to see my Star Wars audio mix collection grow. Thank you Belbucus for synching all these various tracks to the GOUT, and to Mallwalker and boba feta for uploading/providing links.

Glad to see you're still with us.

It's a shame that you don't have the OT versions of Episodes 5 & 6 or the SE of Episode 4. I suppose it's a different narrator for the SE tracks than the one used for the OT track? If me bumping this thread means that more people will become interested and help you in your quest perhaps these tracks and the VHS version of Episode 1 can be found for you.

It's a shame that Episodes 2 & 3 weren't released on home video with the AD audio tracks. Were tracks for these two films created? I suppose to show theatrically? It's also a shame that WGBH hasn't responded to you at all.

By the way, I've sent you a PM.

Thanks boba feta for reuploading the '93 NTSC ANH mix.

Looking forward to downloading the Empire and Jedi mixes as well as the '85 remix, 35mm stereo and of course the '77 mono. Hopefully, you and other kind souls will provide them through file upload services for those of us unable to use the newsgroups.

Nice.

I'm looking forward to checking this out. This is the kind of editing that T3 can benefit from and I've yet to watch any T3 fan-edits.

By the way, how do you create the awesome 3D metal effect for the text/logo on your custom covers? I have a personal project that could benefit from this type of effect on some things.

Darth_Evil:
While I can see your point, in the case of the audio there is a definite issue. The new Platinum Edition of THe Little Mermaid features only a DEHT (Disney Enhanced Home Theatre) Mix and not the original audio from the theatrical release. That audio is however located on one of the Laserdiscs. Multiple reviewers and DVD enthusiasts on forums and websites have commented, upon comparison, that the original audio sounds much better than the DEHT mix. The filters applied to the new mix destroy the quality of the sound somewhat, especially during the musical numbers. Of course the "bigger picture" issue is that Disney didn't include the original theatrical audio, when they have done so on almost all previous Platinum Edition releases. While that may sound like another "matter of principle" issue, it adds insult to injury because the DEHT mix is inferior to the theatrical audio which was readily available for Disney to include.

Oops. I kind of rambled on didn't I? Oh well, I hope I've explained the sound issue. You can check these two reviews and their comments sections to see what I'm talking about: Home Theater Forum and DVDTimes.

JohnnyRingo, I am definitely interested in getting a copy of this as I've enjoyed all the other Star Wars videogame related discs that have surfaced on this forum. I live in NSW, do you think I could be PiFed a copy? Send me a PM if so.

Mallanikkelsen, are you still with us?

I was digging through some old posts and remembered your quest for AD audio for the Star Wars films. Living in Australia there are occasionally AD tracks on our DVDs (ported over from the UK release usually) and I have come to enjoy listening to them if only out of curiosity. Did you ever find any of the tracks, I think you found ANH and were looking to be getting the SE versions of ESB and ROTJ? I would love to hear these if you're still around.

DarthEditous, I've become intrigued by the Photo Popup link you posted. I've tracked down this tutorial here. I was wondering if you would know how to use the image segmentation program? I downloaded the source code but can't compile it. Since I can't compile it I can't create a superpixel image and thus am unable to create one of these pseudo-3d pop-ups. If you are using that segmentation program at all could you please help me out?

I know this should be a PM but I can't seem to send one at the moment.
