Most people still don't have BD burners (got beaten to it), so the AVCHD may be their only way to watch this in HD on their BD players na the encode quality is still very very high. And I think that if there's another SD DVD, it will be a DVD9, because this is very grainy and that doesn't agree well with mpeg2 compression.

Did I read that you were considering adjusting the gamma on that one scene for this AVCHD?

Harmy said:

Oh, yeah, there will definitely not be another MKV. Now that I think about it, I'd consider doing the v2.1 AVCHD if there's demand (it only took like 10 hours to render and an hour to upload, so it would be no biggie).

DO you know what went wrong with your render for the AVCHD the first time?

Quick ? even though I have the GOUT(2006 DVD) and not the Blu-ray can I still download the remastered version?  

You can do whatever you want to do. Nobody is going care what you download or don't download anyway so why even ask the question?

Do what you want and stop asking permission...seriously?

The only thing that really bugs me about the GOUT in that shot is the guys missing legs.

Installed my LG blu ray burner last night only to realize its complete shit and won't read any blank media. Go go AVCHD until I can get another brand! Beware LG crap guys! I shoulda known lol

Nothing wrong with LG burners just get a replacement. If it won't read blank media that doesn't mean all LG burners are shit, it just means that the particular one you have is shit. You have a warranty, send it back.

Fire is pretty. Playing with fire is fun.

I downloaded from isohunt, and it will only play the first 20 minutes or so.  i tried to remux with tsmuxer, and i got this error.

 

Matroska parse error: Invalid EBML number size 0 at pos 4134288813

Yep you got the bad copy. Download from another source.

You_Too said:

Yes, it looks great in motion too. :)

Considering the source being the GOUT, of course. While it looks much more HD-like, the smearing is still there. That's something we'll have to live with.

It may not as crisp as the bluray but defiantly better than broadcast TV or VHS tape! Which is the way most have watched the non SE's. I even think it superior to standard DVD's.

And can we even call this a GOUT project anymore? Its miles better than the GOUT!

PS. The snapshots do look very nice. Hurry up and getter done already, wink wink...

This is going to be such a cool set to watch...you guys have taken the GOUT which is a faded jagged low res mess and made something special.

For me, the myspleen copy works 100%.

So this MKV does not have lossless sound?

I would want a MKV with lossless sound, but I don't want to redownload the entire MKV So a release with only the audio would be fine.

Entitled much? lol

I'm seeding at MS.

I don't know what any of you are talking about with the TPB torrent failing.  It contains the MKV, along with the Threepio Project folder, minus the par2 files, pl files, and html file, BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T ALLOWED.  I did NOTHING to alter the MKV and it is fully intact, with all audio and subs.

Well you weren't supposed to extract the MKV yourself and then upload the MKV. You need to upload the rars and pars just like it was given to you by Harmy. And why? Because now we are screwed. If you had uploaded the rars and there was some corrupt files we could repair those, but as it stands we can't repair what you decided to upload.

Could you please start a new torrent but this time upload the rars and pars?

Why wasn't the torrent just upped in its original format, ie rar parts and pars?

The TPB torrent is useless, how can you repair with any rar program when there are no rars?

Torrents already repair on their own, without any need for RAR or PAR files.

 

Not true. If you upload a corrupt file you will download a corrupted file.

So I didn't touch the Threepio folders in anyway. Which extraneous files are you referring to?

The following files are present in the Threepio folder in the MySpleen torrent, but not in the TPB torrent: _README.html, prep_subs-match.pl, preb_subs-rtl.pl, prep_subs.pl, and the folder "vsfilter.dll", containing centerleft_mod_src.7z and VSFilter.dll. Whether they're supposed to be included or not, I don't know, but it's an anomaly between the two torrents.

 

OK. Those were part of the original download so I left them in. It's a shame that the tpb downloaders won't have the readme though; it's dead-useful.

If I'm uploading a corrupted file then someone please tell me how I should figure that out. I watched the film without any issue whatsoever (wrote an email to the uploader group earlier) but that is no guarantee.

It would of helpful if you uploaded the release as is, not your extraction of the release. Your MKV is toast.

Has anybody started a torrent of the release the way it was released in the first place as a rar archive with pars?

Can some one please PM me on how you fit a full picture in a forum. 

Your post did have the full pic, just right click on the pic and choose "view image"

Seems my Myspeen account has been closed due to inactivity. If anybody could spare an invite I thank you in advance.

And let's not forget the "improvements" and "enhancements" for the upcoming 3D abomination!  At least we have Raiders of the Lost Ark coming to us in IMAX to celebrate the restoration and BD release.

Raiders also has cgi "improvements", lol. likely, you won't see the theatrical release.

Incorrect.  Spielberg has stated that the restoration is of the original 35mm negative, and things like the glass reflection of the cobra will not only be seen again, but in IMAX to boot.

I stand corrected.

Harmy is your encoding error due to maybe a little too much bitrate for your cpu? Just thinking you might have hit a wall with your equipment.

<p>I was 17 when ROTJ came out. A couple of my friends and I watched it all day in the theater. I watched it 8 times in total while in its theater run. I don't remember blue stars. Years later when the SE came out for a limited run in the theaters I remember thinking, "wtf"? Where did those blue stars come from?</p>

<p>With all respect to H_h don't you guys dare. You_Too, that's brilliant work.</p>
<p>Please pass on my sincere gratitude to both you and DJ. These are going to be special.&nbsp; Can't wait.</p>

Perhaps a PM to Adywan about codecs and render settings could be worth while?

Greetings. First things first, I'm probably the single biggest anomaly you will ever see on this website, because in all my 24 years, I have never, ever seen the films. Of course, if I'm here, I'm resolving to change that. Being a film purist, I wanted to see the original, unaltered trilogy in the best quality possible, so a friend of mine directed me here.

 

I see you guys have a ton of different options available, and you even appear to be working on a Blu-ray version as we speak. I'm debating whether or not I should wait for the Blu-ray versions to be complete, or just go for the DVDs. I'm viewing on a 50 inch plasma screen, so I want to get the best quality possible. Any recommendations? Oh, and an invite to MySpleen would be lovely, thank you :)

My advice is to wait for the blu-rays. Especially because you are going to be watching on a 50inch screen.

And thats from the gout...thats going to be something to see! Chin up DJ you have friends here that appreciate your hard work. (U too as well, of course...)
