Now That I have. Neat video things are going smoothly!
clip (wip): https://mega.nz/file/GVoUXKjR#a48Kj3uUK4cwYxSdOTE9miqadYXY9bdV9YiDTYPXxvI
Should the Audio Track be completely reconstructed from scratch? I feel as if the Sound Mixes from after the 1997 Special Edition don’t sound right.
Also, after listening to the Mono Track from 4K77, I’ve discovered that before the Dianoga drags Luke under for the second time, he says/yells “No!”
What the hell are you talking about?
Revisited has always had new mixes.
We have reached the goal! Thanks Atom-88!
I have finished about 21 minutes of the film and I am now at the tatooine shots (video-wise)
Everything is going great except for grain, Which is why I need Neat Video,
But for now, this will have to do, Have a great day.
Sounds like some good news!
Thanks for sticking around bud, love you edits too!
What’s with the distortion and white specks though? It had other kinds of visual artefacts.
I am not sure.

My guess is the 2006 DVD, based on the quality and the color of the footage.
Okay I will take that as an answer!
I found this clip on a 2GB media DVD? Any Idea what version of the film it is?
Blu-ray audio added in
Youtube: https://youtu.be/H3PaubuTq1c
This is a little off topic but how did you install the Color Matching Tool? I run MacOS and I can’t figure it out.

Enjoy.
Hello folks! Big announcement.
So I’ve decided If I ever make a V2.0 of this project I will use the 2019 masters as a Base.
Originally I was against this idea as the color of those masters looked like crap, but now that I have Dr. Dre’s color matching tool I will be able to match the color of this corrected blu-ray version to the 2019 masters, which will mean that I will use the 2019 version for version 2.0 (if it ever happens).
And this will also make it easier to clean up the 4k77 source as in this version I have to match the exact level of grain as the blu-ray, But because the 2019 version has no grain, I will just add one light layer of grain on top. Now, this version may not happen, But we can’t tell yet.
Also, a shout-out to Atom-88 for donating to the neat video problem. Thank You!
What was the process for that scene? Did you do any stitching of multiple sources or clean up a single source?
It’s probably a good sign I can’t tell.
No stitching In this shot. I just replaced the shots that were altered with the 4k77 source.
I then cleaned it using PFClean. And color corrected it With Dr. Dre’s Color Match Tool.

Cool clip, glad you removed the Dewback walking across the screen. Why there is no audio? The same thing happened with the GOUT clip, except the GOUT clip had music.
I haven’t done the audio tracks yet, so that’s why you cant hear anything.
Done with the mos eisly scene:

That looks amazing.
Thank you!

Will you edit or change the lightsaber duel in any way? Not SC 38 Reimagined, although if you want to do that it’s fine. What I mean is are you gonna edit it kinda like Adywan did, with things like speeding the duel up or adding Battle of the Heroes? Also, will you keep the Jabba scene?
The duel will be changed slightly, sped up in some scenes, and polished,
No music will be added though.
also, the Jabba scene is going to be pulverized.
Ps. “Devastator” is the name of the star destroyer at the beginning of the movie.
Hello! Star Wars fans. It’s been a long time, but I am back.
Anyways I have a problem, I need the newest version of Neat Video but It’s pretty pricy
right now it going for about 159.90 USD, which is more than I can afford for a software
Now onto Gout Reconstructed:
I have finished about 56 minutes of the film and I am now at the death star escape (video-wise)
Everything is going great except for grain, Which is why I need Neat Video, I have linked the death star scene
remember the 4k77 bits still need cleanup with Neat Video, Of course, The audio isn’t done yet as you can hear the tracks are messed up.
But for now, this will have to do, Tell me in the comments what you think of the clip.

Also, here is the available clips:
Death Star explosion: https://youtu.be/Sxy1K3jcn8Q
Teaser: https://youtu.be/9NefNvy1zyA
Will you be upgrading the lightsaber effects? Especially the falcon training scene! I don’t understand why Lucas never fixed this in the special edition
Yes of course, I didn’t include that because I thought it would be self explanatory.
Sounds good ThatGuy, looking forward to your Gout preservation also.
Out of curiosity will you be fixing Vader’s chest control panel, so it has the blinking lights like ESB and ROTJ.
Sure, I was originally going to include that but I thought it would be too tacky.
Me too!
Thanks guys! here is the finished result: https://imgur.com/a/6SdZpzF

This case is a criterion case.
Here’s another
Thats the one I’m going to use!
Thanks.
I upscaled the image with Waifu2x. Heres a comparison:

Hope you like it.
That looks amazing!
This is the largest image I could find (though I only had a quick look). Obviously it does have the logo and title but they shouldn’t be too difficult to remove 👍
^ Image can be found here - https://romanian-headline.blogspot.com/2021/04/star-wars-new-hope-book-pdf.html
Some of the generic custom cover websites listed up in the An Index & Help Thread for Case Covers, Disc Labels, and Fan Art… thread may also have a decent quality image.
Good luck with it 👍
Thanks oojason! Looks gorgeous!
