PM’s sent. Everyone should have a link to both the version without Boba Fett and with the Boba Fett subplot now.

Thanks!
That’s a really dickish thing to say. How else did you want him to do some of these things, go back in time and try and edit the script and/or convince the entire filming crew to make the new scenes?
Anyway, I’ve watched the edit, and I think it’s quite impressive. I do love Vader going to Coruscant, the visuals are fantastic and it was implemented well, even if it makes both Vader and the Emperor’s arrivals feel weird as they are clearly made to be the character’s first appearance. I would’ve moved the shot tilting up to reveal Vader when he arrives on the Death Star to that scene and changed the colors. The shots in that scene are also noticeably stretched; I think it would’ve been better to zoom them in then stretch them horizontally. But none of those ruin my enjoyment of the scene. I also love Luke being on Dagobah first. The deleted scenes mesh surprisingly well, though I’d be lying if I said it was seamless. It’s good to see Luke making his lightsaber back. I really love the thing that was done with Vader communicating with Luke in the meditation chamber while he’s in his X-Wing. The fan-film footage was all cool, though sometimes it was distractingly low quality. I was disappointed to see that the Boba Fett subplot advertised in the OP wasn’t present, that was probably the thing I was most excited to see. I guess that wasn’t implemented when this workprint was released. I also don’t really care for removing Luke and Leia being siblings. I never minded it and it’s been so engrained into the saga at this point that I can’t imagine it not being true (especially since I wasn’t around before it was true). It especially doesn’t work when Vader brings up his twin sister to taunt him even though according to this he has no twin sister. I agree with every bullet point in the OP but it.
Overall though it was very enjoyable.
What you have is the latest/ possibly final version of this edit. I have an earlier version that I believe is right before this one and it has the Boba Fett subplot which I liked. I’m going to upload and share it this weekend when I have the time…
Edit: That includes everyone above who requested a link. I’ll share both versions.
Please could I possibly get a link too?

Great necrobump IMO. I found my seven year old disc with this on it, one of the greatest ROTJ edits. Luckily I was able to rip it to a file. PM’s sent to the folks above.
PM’s sent! Sorry for the delay folks.
FYI, the top two posts on Reddit - Fanedits are both about Ascendant. You said, “Sorry, I accidentally deleted the first post.” Apparently not.
If anyone would like to type out the directions that YouTube clip (which I haven’t looked at), I can add it to the FAQ on the Drive sooner.
Log into your Google Drive account
Right click the FOLDER in which your preferred movie file resides within Google Drive:
e.g. The Rise Of Skywalker - Ascendant 1080p (FOLDER not file)Choose download from the drop down menu which starts the zip process that should take
around a few hours to complete by which point you’ll be asked to save the file to your desired location.
For me in Chrome it was a single left click not right click but there was no drop down menu and it went straight to the zip process.
Please send me a link. Thanks!
“Like Disney’s Fantasia, Terminator 2, THX 1138, and the original Star War Trilogy, no good official version of this movie exists on disc format.”
You didn’t mention Amadeus.
Maybe a stupid question, but what is DTS audio?
It’s a different audio codec, that’s all. AC3 (aka Dolby Digital) is owned by Dolby, and DTS is owned by…well, DTS.
Standard AC3 tracks max out at 640kbps, while standard DTS tracks can go up to approximately 1500kbps.
It’s a way of delivering higher-quality lossy audio while still saving on file size compared to lossless codecs like Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA.
Although I do standard DTS encoding because I simply don’t have the DTS-HD MA encoder suite; if I had that, I’d be making lossless encodes for Hal rather than the 1500kbps DTS encodes.
From everything I’ve read in many articles/forums on the web DTS-HD MA lossless isn’t superior at all to DTS lossy. There’s nothing gained with DTS-HD MA just stick with DTS and your fine.
I’ve been looking for this forever. Would be much obliged for a link - thanks!

The Meet the Parents HD-DVD looks better than the blu ray to me.
Please send me the link! Thanks for taking this on for so many!

Actually you should be purchasing it. Both cuts are on the Shout Factory Collector’s Edition:

Once again, jimbotron235 created this. stretch009 had nothing to do with it. He’s just sharing it. jimbotron235’s last activity here at OT.com was 13-Apr-2018 so you’ll have to thank him elsewhere or maybe he’ll receive a PM. Anyway, just sayin’. 😃
JakeRyan17, my website has a request form.
Aroki, can you share a shot of your mediainfo on the file to see what’s happening?
Hmm, dont know which media-info you mean,

In some ways I prefer ‘Mediainfo Lite’.
THANK YOU 😃

I managed to encode it via VidCoder. Now its possible to Mux it with sound. The original Mp4 still doesn’t work. But at least I can make a blu ray now 😉
You definitely should post your video mediainfo as well as audio. I can tell you if it’s BD compatible. For starters it has to be exactly 1920x1080 or 1280x720 if DigMod’s project is only 1080p or 720p.

NO you can’t make a blu ray with AAC audio. That is NOT within BD spec. You need to convert it to another format. I recommend AC3 audio. You can use TFM audio tool or xvid4psp for that. Google is your friend…
