I've seen the SD videos and they're brilliant. So many rumored scenes confirmed ... I hope somebody leaks the iBook versions too

Thank you sire

In that case they will probably be a better source than my set, which I bought on eBay. My tapes were played unknown number of times

Yes, it was a UK-only set (America had a similar LD set that year - the "definitive" collection).

So are you people interested in it? Maybe I could send my tapes to Andrea (Slovakia is closer to  Italy than UK)

I hate to repeat myself, but I love the colours

I have the set, but don't have a "proper" VCR. I transfered the first tape on my ~20 year old VCR but I was shocked how horribly it looks

Wasn't one of the officially released edited differently?

Is there any chance to view the bonus content without buying new hardware? Will the content be shown on the Windows or Android Kindle apps or do I really have to buy an iPad or Kindle Fire?

I would like to see it a bit brighter, but other than that, I really like what I've seen, especially the colours!

Exciting !

Clip!

Wasn't this clip included in Empire of Dreams?

Any news about this project? I just bought the czech edition and was shocked that it has almost no special features

Funny, I thought "broad and deep and very human at the same time" is the definition of Star Trek :-)

Ben Burrit? Shouldn't it be Ben Burrito?

No, "creation of 1:1 copies of any unprotected BD media" means that Nero allows you to copy unprotected BDs, not to CREATE unprotected BDs. At least that's how I understood it. Nero ALWAYS reencoded the video. which is the reason why I stopped using it ages ago.

Actually the NTSC>PAL conversion wasn't done by me, it was done by the company which produced the UK VHS tapes, so unfortunately the PAL video was the source

I finished the download yesterday evening but haven't watched it yet ( that's my weekend plan :-) ) However I went quickly through the audio tracks and while I didn't have any problem to listen to the first audio, the second audio track (theatrical stereo DTS HD-MA) was just pure static, and the third audio (theatrical mono DTS HDMA) was sound combined with static.

Of course the problem is that I don't have the correct software/hardware combination to play it, but is there any chance that some of you would upload the two tracks separately encoded in some lossless format (e.g. wav or flac)? I could use the audio from version 2.1, but I would really prefer to have the tracks lossless and I'm sure other people would love that too :-)

Thanks in forward

Any chance we'll ever see an NTSC conversion of this project? I can watch it fine on my computer, but I'd love to be able to take discs with me when I'm looking after my niece and nephew.

Well I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Don't forget that the source of most of these episodes is a pretty bad NTSC > PAL conversion resulting in blended fields. Converting it back to NTSC - would there be any benefit at all (except solving some compatibility issues)? Are you sure your TV and/or DVD player can't handle PAL single properly

EDIT: Wrong thread LOL :-)

Is the only thing that makes these different from modern releases the fact that there are Shatner/Nimoy chats in the beginning?  I know that some material cut from the original broadcast was restored for these, but is this same material restored for the DVD/BDs, or does it actually include material never released on DVD/BD?

The "episodes" restored for this TV broadcast were released on DVD. The BluRay versions are again different. The interviews were only shown on TV, they were not released anywhere.

Thanks for the responses guys, I don't have a Kindle so I hope I will be able to "run" it somehow

I know I repeat myself but does anybody know what exactly does digital release mean?

This one seems more interesting : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4D6L34BkNs - the first widescreen version of the Jabba scene I have seen

So, did anybody get that enhance digital version of the book? What exactly is it now?

I'm sooooo glad that I'm not the only one caring about it

I'm 99% sure there is only one French dub and it was made in 1977.

The guy, who dubbed Vader in Star Wars (ESB and ROTJ had a different actor) is François Chaumette.

That is correct. When the Special editions came out, they just hired different actors to fill in the changed/new parts. They left the rest of the dubs alone.

Funny. The same thing was done with the Slovak dubs of the prequels (especially E1 of course)
