Mass5160’s 1995 Star Wars Trilogy UK ISD Executor - ‘The Definitive Collection’ - VHS Box Set Preservation Project

The films…

Star Wars: 5.02gb
Empire Strikes Back: 5.09gb
Return Of The Jedi: 5.20gb

Total Size: 15.3gb. mkv files.

The bonus features…

Star Wars: 3.72gb - ‘An Interview with George Lucas (1 of 3) + Supplemental Section’
Empire Strikes Back: 4.16gb - ‘An Interview with George Lucas (2 of 3) + Supplemental Section’
Return Of The Jedi: 3.30gb - ‘An Interview with George Lucas (3 of 3) + Supplemental Section’
From Star Wars to Jedi - Making of a Saga: 2.87gb

Total Size: 14gb. mkv files.

The Workflow: ‘If I remember correctly, the workflow was Panasonic FS 200 to Digital using a Hauppauge ImpactVCB-e, video captured over S-Video, and audio via line-in using integrated audio hardware, all captured losslessly using AmaRecTV v3.10, and then transcoded to 576i, using Handbrake.’

Format: 720x576i (for those of us old enough to remember 576i was once considered to be HD standard!)

^ this preservation project is from a Box Set with sealed tapes - so all credit & kudos to Mass5160 for undertaking this project.

📍 250+ available Original Trilogy Preservations - some from a long time ago . . . . 📍 - and then send me a PM.

Huh. Not a project thread… that’s disappointing. I thought this was actually a project for Captain EO - and was going to compare it to the projects already available up on MySpleen.

An Index Of Projects & Help Thread for Preservation of Other Properties…

 

If creating a new thread that is NOT a fan project… please give fellow members a clear idea of what the thread is about. For example, add ‘Query’, or ‘Info’, ‘Discussion’, ‘Help: looking for…’, ‘Help Wanted’, ‘Info Wanted’, ‘Has anyone done a project on X?’, or ‘Idea: for Project X’ etc to the thread title. It annoys members to see lazily titled threads that appear to be projects on here - to open them - and only to find it is some lazy git just looking for a project, or wanting a link, or more info, or wanting someone else to make a project for them etc. Please do not make new threads for which there are project threads already in existence.

If this project is only half as good as your GOUT Upscale project we’re all well in for a treat.

Nice work, NSP - thank you. 👍

Hopefully the project threads will soon get back to being discussions about the actual projects themselves - queries, feedback, reviews, exchange of ideas, suggestions for future versions etc - and not be full of endless & unnecessary ‘link request’ posts.
 

Good luck with it. 👍

Is this scan available to watch? I’d love to see it!

No, mate. The project has WIP in the title (Work In Progress) - so it was likely never finished or released.

The post above yours, by Roobyoo, also answers the question. 👍

Hopefully ZigZig is doing well - and will return here one day soon (he is much missed - and not just for his quality projects).

This thread is rife with this stuff lol

I think that’s stating the obvious. Unfortunately there’s no alternative topic titled George Lucas: Star Wars Creator, One True Omniscient Genius…

Have you tried looking over at TFN…? 😉

That is a sweet collection of documentaries and intriguing snippets you having there, Atom-88. Much kudos and credit to you for offering to share it with everyone. 👍

Creator Tony Gilroy on Giving ANDOR a Hopeful Ending | Series Finale Deep Dive

www.youtube.com/watch?v=21FS7CVClxo - 46 minute video interview from the IndieWire youtube channel.
 

The blurb: ‘The “Andor” creator reflects on his decade-long “Star Wars” journey, from the blunt email that got him the show, to the decisions that lead to Season 2’s unusual structure, and of course deciding where to leave each of the fascinating characters. Watch the master storyteller explain his craft on this episode of the Filmmaker Toolkit.’

^ also with some handy chapters and descriptions. Some really intriguing and insightful points made by Tony Gilroy here.

ANDOR Full Q&A (Diego Luna Tony Gilroy Genevieve O’Reilly Adria Arjona) STAR WARS - 1st June, 2025

www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM_Ayry2ypM -a 35 minute Q&A video from the The Imperial Communique youtube channel.
 

The blurb: ‘Guests: Diego Luna - Cassian Andor, Genevieve O’Reilly - Mon Mothma, Adria Arjona - Bix Caleen, Tony Gilroy - Creator/Showrunner, Sanne Wohlenberg - Executive Producer, Dan Gilroy - Writer Episodes 7, 8 and 9, Brandon Roberts - Composer, David Acord - Sound Designer/Editor, Moderator - Jim Hemphill of Indiewire.’

PaleyLive: An Evening With Andor (the sold-out event from the 30th May)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_M9VSSRBMQ - a 54 minute video from the The Paley Center for Media youtube channel.
 

The blurb: 'One in a series of programs and special screenings presented at The Paley Center for Media in Los Angeles. This seminar celebrates “Andor,” the Disney+ sci-fi series which is a prequel to the theatrical “Star Wars” spinoff “Rogue One.”

Actor Patton Oswalt moderates the following panelists: executive producer/creator/writer Tony Gilroy; executive producer/cast member Diego Luna (Cassian Andor), executive producer Sanne Wohlenberg; and cast members Genevieve O’Reilly (Mon Mothma), Adria Arjona (Bix Caleen), and Ben Mendelsohn (Orson Krennic).

The panelists touch on such topics as: how working on a series that was fully written before production began gave the actors greater liberty to track their character’s story arc’s across the entire season; the epic scale of the production and Diego Luna’s appreciation for the production team’s attention to detail in creating an authentic universe, including practical sets and working props, for the actor’s to inhabit; how the covid pandemic informed Tony Gilroy’s writing process; Adria Arjona’s approach to pivotal scenes; Genevieve O’Reilly’s memories of filming “Mon Mothma’s” stirring speech from the third block of episodes in season two, and more.

Questions from Paley members then lead to a discussion of the following topics: how the actors collaborated with the costume designer on Andor’s stunning and intricate costumes, and whether a soundtrack including the fan-favorite EDM/rave-like music from episode three will be released.’

I’ll also try and add the video for the ‘Andor Season 2 Official Emmy #FYC Q&A’ event from the 1st June when it is released (there are some snippets up on x.com/andorofficial):-

How Andor Broke Every Rule of Star Wars (And Won)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_OzCitR6Vc - an 18 minute video at the Robbo youtube channel.
 

The blurb: 'First released in 2022, Andor has reached widespread acclaim from both inside and outside the Star Wars fandom. But it is not their success that’s surprising. It’s their approach.

Because while every other show has tried to BE Star Wars, the creators of Andor wanted their show to be Anti-Star Wars. So, how does a show that breaks every rule that Disney has for Star Wars, create arguably the most widely acclaimed Star Wars show ever made?’

It’s time for Star Wars to move beyond the legacy characters.

“I am so grateful to George [Lucas] for letting me be a part of that back in the day, the humble days when George called ‘Star Wars’ ‘the most expensive low-budget movie ever made. We never expected it to become a permanent franchise and a part of pop culture like that. But my deal is, I had my time. I’m appreciative of that, but I think they should focus on the future and all the new characters.”

OK
I am back here after 7 days , But author last activity is a year ago! how can i get the links? if you have them send me thank you.

So you chose NOT to become a member of the community - or make any effort on here at all - and instead chose to return here after 7 days expecting to be given the links for these projects?

Did you not read the actual posts in the links above? In there, it states what to do if a fan project creator is not around the site anymore to give out links to their projects.

It also states that ‘simply becoming an active and participating member of the community on here means a significantly better chance of others helping you out in acquiring any fan projects you may be looking for…’
 

Sorry - but I won’t be sending you or anyone else who only turns up here… to simply ask for links to projects and give nothing back in return… not even any effort made to contribute or participate on these forums. IMHO, that is not what this community is about.

Others on here may feel differently - you may have more luck getting the links from them. I wish you well with that. 👍

Just chiming in to wish you good luck with this - we haven’t had an accessible 3D project for the Star Wars Saga on here before - so this should be cool to see when completed.

All the best with it. 👍

Star Wars Original Trilogy Polish 1995 VHS Voiceover Knapik Raw Unsynced Capture HQ - by Wahajec (at MySpleen)
 

Description: 'In my opinion these are the best Polish OT voiceovers (by Tomasz Knapik, RIP). It’s a previously unavailable capture, made by me around 10 years ago, the quality is much better than the Polish tracks included in 4K77, Harmy’s Despecialized and possibly other SW projects. I intended to sync this to GOUT to properly release it, but I never got around to do it, so I’d rather just put it out as is, it’s already way overdue. Maybe somebody likes these enough to work on the sync.

Capture was done using stereo RCA out from some LG 6-head VCR and Asus Xonar DG audio card. 48KHz 16 bits PCM, encoded losslessly into final FLAC files.

The files are complete audio captures of the tapes and include various stuff at the beginning of each tape, like interviews with George Lucas and X-Files promos.’
 

Size & Format: 2.01 GB (2,161,884,371 bytes) : FLAC files (audio only).

Added: 2025-05-28 13:35:34 GMT

The project is available on MySpleen and 📍 250+ available Original Trilogy Preservations - some from a long time ago . . . . 📍
 

All credit and kudos to Wahajec (and many thanks for permission to make a post about his project on here).
 

Thanks Atom-88 - I’m looking forward to watching these intriguing PT Edits when I have some spare time. 👍
