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)

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!

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.

Is there an alternate source for burning directions?

Finally saw this.  i think you all oversold it.

 I have to agree.  This just like the first Avengers didn't do much for me and was way over-hyped.

WG made some alterations to his versions of the 2004 SE, FWIW.  He color corrected Ep IV and Ep V but he was more aggressive about it with Ep V.  He also edited IV so Han would shoot first.

Edit:  The Spleen is back up, btw. (for now)

I'm assuming that the German and Italian discs are Region B?

There's no need to assume.  Blu-Ray.com gives you that info plus a whole lot more.

Great Work!  Thanks for this list.

Does anyone know where to find those French HDF versions?  They could be very helpful for version 2 of my HDTV project.  PM me if you can help.  Thanks.

 Found them.  PM sent.

So, what happened to releasing this project this week?

@ kk650

PM sent.

Did you find out more about how to add subtitles, DrDre?  Harmy and Dark Jedi are two others that could probably help if You_Too can't.

JMoomer said:

I actually like the Director's Cut, but maybe that's because it's the only one I can watch.  Could I please watch the Theatrical Cut again so I can start hating the Director's Cut?  

 PM sent.

DrDre said:

@ stretch009

If somebody can tell me how to add those subtitles in Avisynth I would be more than happy to put them in.

 You_Too from Team Blu could probably help you.  Maybe shoot him a PM:

@ DrDre

Those screenshots do look great I have to say.  One quick question though, what are you going to do about the subtitles for Greedo in SW and Jabba in ROTJ?  I'm hoping they will be hard-coded with a font similar to past projects here.
