This turned out so good I just had to share it.
I realize some people were able to upgrade the audio on their own, but I'm sure there are others who were not, so this is for them.
Thanks to the original seeder, the video of this DVD is excellent, thanks to Bob for suggesting to extract the audio in wav and reduce it to mono and double the volume, and the chap who went through the trouble of posting the chapter points.
I authored the DVD with Tsunami DVD author, and once again, the audio is LPCM MONO, but it sounds super. So this DVD has a menu and chapters.
I will post screens of two menus, I think you all know what the video quality is like.
I was hoping someone would do this! Thanks for posting this :)

If you run the DVD through Shrink or GSpot, it will show the audio as AC3 stereo, but it is not. I basically imported the LPCM mono over the AC3 audio in Tsunami.
Shrink will also show a wrong sized audio file, the correct size is about 600 MBs.

Is this the same thing that 928 was doing or is something different? I want to download but i will only download the best version. For what i´ve heard 928 was preparing to do the best sound version of this, am i right?

Ehm, if you don't want to download this one, don't be afraid, you'll surely get a very good (probably slightly better than this) version :-) And no, this doesn't look like pow wow's or 928's work

I don't know what he is doing. If he is planning to use lossless audio with this video, I think the file would have to be a DVD9, unless he reduces it to mono as well. The audio I extracted was 1.2 GB and I reduced it to mono, so it was half the size. The original DVD was about 3.8 GBs so I don't think he can fit the stereo PCM and the video on a DVD5.
But I could be wrong.
The audio on this is decompressed AC3.

Heads up
This DVD here IS NOT LPCM audio.
It is uncompressed AC3 audio to LPCM.Therefore it's still AC3 ...lossy.
The version i am doing will be pure LPCM.Real LPCM.
Basically when i'm done,it will be the definitive of Houston 77.
EDIT:....sorry Tgunn,you told of the AC3 while i was posting this.

Why wouldn't I tell? It sounds great, better than any other version so far.
If you have the LCPM why don't you up just the audio?
Then I'd like to see if you can squeeze a full LPCM audio file onto a DVD5.

928 has stated before that he has two options:
Double layered DVD or 2 DVD´s.
I still don´t know in wich format he will upload it (in case he does), but i only asked because after he stated what he was doing there were some people loosing time trying to do the same thing. I apreciate all the work (and you already stated that you didn´t knew about his work), but since this type of work is time consuming -and i hate doing it myself ; ) - i was just wondering why people are still doing it when he has the best audio source avaiable!
But let me tell you that i apreciate you efforts to make a better version avaiable in the Queen comunity. Thanks for sharing!
