I just want the original VHS version copy, 

 For some reason I doubt you've seen the amazing DCP of part I.

The Sky does not have the same amount of Dnr the Bluray has although it has compression artifacts and slight filtering due to there poor encoders. Take a screenshot of both when the sparks are coming off the wheel of the Delorean and you will see alot are missing on the Bluray due to automated clean up. The Hdnet version is more filtered than the Sky from what I remember.

 So, can you tell us where we can find the Sky versions or not?

Anyone have the file names of the Sky version?

 +1

Really want to check out Part 3 of the Sky version.

Okay...    Treefingerz,  StarWars4Ever,  adl345,  and  unkinhead.     Check your private messages.

@ x5gb

Please check your PM's.

dvdmike said:

Why?

 Maybe because the Sky HD of part 3 was just declared as the best one to get.

Anybody know if his cheaper double version would be region free? It costs almost half the cost of the two separately.

Didn't Team Negative 1 say that after they do the OUT, they might do the 97se and the prequels?

 Yes, but it looks like the Indiana Jones movies might be first.

I'm guessing, from experience, that you have old versions of tsMuxer and MKVToolNix.

Latest Versions:

Yeah. I was going to say you could just take it off the blu-ray and make it fit the laserdisc footage. You could just downscale it, blur it, and noise it up a little bit.

IIRC, that's what the other preservation did. Sorry, can't remember who was behind that one, but I just downloaded it like a month ago, so it can't be too far down the forum...

 Here it is and it's on the spleen:

I think you should use the PAL DVD for ROTJ - at least, according to anyone in this forum, this is better than NTSC!

 But Moth3r and others have said it's only SLIGHTLY better than it's NTSC counterpart.

Also, if anyone has Blu-ray case cover art for this, or even scans of the official Director's Cut cover that could be modified for this, let me know!

 There's a really good custom cover on  http://www.cdcovers.cc/.

but still would like feedback on the list of changes.

 Edit: nevermind

I can't wait to check this one out, it looks like it might dethrone the Dan Edit for me.  Please consider releasing a version WITH the Rancor and WITHOUT the 'Nooooo' in it.

The actual video being upscaled is 712x274. The SR algorithm upscales the video exactly two times to 1424x548. At this point I downscale the video the 1280x544 with Spline64, but I might upscale to 1920x816 for the final version.

 How about 1920x1080 for those who want to burn it directly to a BD?

The way to find stuff on Usenet is use NZBclub (dot) com.  It's much better than the one mentioned above.  (Except it doesn't access alt.binaries.starwars)

CatBus said:

Somehow I missed the V2 release.  Please PM me a link!

 You've got it CatBus! Check your PM's.

Google didn't help this time.

 Fixed that for you. With either a typo or 'kay'?

 What does KFTFY stand for?

So what's the latest ETA for this?

This sounds great. I have the directors cut DVD and you're right, it plods. Would love to get my hands on this!

 Check your PM's!

crampedmisfit1990 said:

This project is awesome! How is it coming along?

 Agreed!  One of my favorites when I was growing up.

Found interesting news lately...

• It seems there is a 1997SE recording of an Australian broadcast; hope to find more info on this
• There were WOWOW broadcasts of all the episodes, in 5.1; even if in "mere" MPEG2, these files (if found) could potentially maybe better than any other ones available until now - according to other WOWOW caps like ROTLA trilogy, Aliens etc.

 and....  WOWOW cap Back to the Future Part I

So, your going to finish and upload the horrible Jaws sequels but your Star Wars projects were never finished.  Interesting.
