Post by mrneo240 »

Trailer:


Information:
This release is something very different,
the 1924 Classic American Film: Sherlock Jr. by Filmmaker Buster Keaton.
nullDC_Win32_Release_21_03_09_17-39-29_Nlt82.png
Specially created to fit within the Mil-CD format made by Sega and sadly abandoned.
This film lies within the public domain and such is free of all copyright and able to be freely distributed.

This Mil-CD PD Film has been setup with a menu that splits the film into chapters as on a typical DVD-Video release.
The film was sourced from a 1440x1080 Restoration that was recently completed and has been resampled, edited and cut to fit this format.

There are 11 Chapters Present:
  • Title Screens
  • Character Introductions
  • The Sheik and the Candy Box
  • Stolen Pocket Watch
  • Pursuit of the Sheik
  • Cinema Sequences
  • Film-Within-A-Film
  • Sherlock Jr. Pursuit and Escape
  • High-Speed Chase
  • Rescuing the Girl
  • Redemption and Credits

To see you release a film, and a public domain one at that, and a Mil-CD video, too, fulfills my dream I had months ago.

I know, but I messed up on my attempt some months back...Great work. I, too, am interested in more community effort.

Good news!

After some more research and tools I now have the ability to make Mil-CD Video GDIs (for gdemu and such)
The player version is an early version 1.00 compared to the later ones but it works just as well with minor changes.
