There is slight out of sync during the second cd, it only lasts couple minutes, then it goes back to sync.

Same source as TUN's TC SVCD -- still red, still cropped, still russian crawl.

6/7/9

Video - 6 - i hate cropping worse than anything. redness is easily fixable with a few color correction filters, a tiny bit dark.
Audio - 7 - i had no sync issues, contrary to other people's claims here.. played fine in wmp/wmpclassic/xbmc. sound is pretty good, but I didn't notice more than one distinct channel... is it mono?
Movie - 9 - one of the best SW movies to date.

all in all a fairly good release, it's quite watchable. if you haven't already, do yourself a favor and see it in theaters first. it's worth it if you're a fan.

Please, someone with a new source?

How can anyone give the audio on this release anything above a 5? It baffles the mind. Are you guys deaf? Can no one hear that horrible audio hiss?

great release

9/9/9

Based on the fact that i have seen this movie on the big screen in theatres, i would definately rate this release lower than the ratings it has been given.

6.5 Video - The picture is SO dark that almost all of the background scenes are not viewable and many of the faces are just shadows. At the point where Palpatine and Anakin **SPOILER REMOVED** i could not even see Palpatine. The end scenes when Anakin becomes ****** is almost black which is a very important scene.
Its also cropped.

6 Audio - The hiss almost makes me want to kill myself.

8.6 Good movie that shouldn't be ruined watching a bad release. Go see it in theatres.

What happened to the days of early DVD SCRNRS ?

from the sample it looks like a really good copy...im not good at re encoding no matter how many times i've tried.lol. is it same audio as workprint or the mono audio?im just asking because i dont really have a chance to download the entire thing for a long while....

I'm not sure if i should bother to explain, but here it goes in short:

This whole tweaking needs re-encoding the video. Because of this, depending on the bitrate, it will always lower the picture quality some(depends what bitrate using)

Aspect ratio was corrected by lowering the resolution from 640x272 -> 640x240.

Brightnes(luma) was corrected by using Levels filters...duh.

I found that when adjusting brightnes the noise increased too. I applyed some small noise reduction too on the filter pipeline. Anyways, with these tweaks its a lot better than the origianl release.

Even though 640x272 is right aspect for this movie (2.35:1) it is fucked up because who ever encoded this, did not remember to calculate the pixel difference after cropping...thats why this release with its cropping needs to be 640x240

FozzieWak, change your PC monitor or Video Card settings, this looks nothing like u mentioned, all those scenes were fine for me, a little washed out looking in dark scenes, but definetly easy to see.

Audio is only Mono though, which sucks for a Star Wars film, you could edit this and the WP together, by taking the Opening titles and sound from the WP, it works fine, but is an absoulute nightmare to do and i wouldnt recommend it, the audio part i mean.

8/6/9

10/9/8

VIDEO: I've got all the various releases of ROTS and this is the best so far. It has the sharpest video of all current releases... including ViSA's WP release. It's obvious that this is NOT a re-encode of the TUN release. It is a rip direct from the original TUN source.

AUDIO: Very Good

MOVIE: Ain't Palpy the best?

GREAT JOB, MoF!
