Star Wars Episode I, VCD, Bootleg, Indonesia 2000
|
This appears to be a bootleg VideoCD from Indonesia. VideoVan is a licensed distributor of Star Wars on VideoCD in Malaysia, but even though the content may be a direct port of an official release, the cover and the disc artwork seem very non-official.
On the discs you find the original theatrical version of the film, without all the added bits which would come later with the 2001 DVD release. The image is cropped fullscreen, and the audio is in the original English. As this is an Indonesian release, the film is most likely subtitled in Bahasa Indonesia, a standardized variety of Malay (Though Google Translate couldn't differentiate between the two languages from the subtitle samples I fed it.) This seems to come from an analog tape source, as there are overscan artifacts along the bottom edge, typical of analog tape capture. Perhaps the subtitle overlay was added at an analog stage? While the programme bears the CD-i logo, I can't find any actual CD-i funcionality on the disc. I got this from a chap over in Australia. Australia's close geographical proximity to the Asian market often provides a good source for merchandise from the region. |
