I am going to be really cheeky now but do you have the original source? 

The French tracks can be removed with GUI muxer and everything else, say like the Cantonese and English audio can be muxed with TSmuxer.

If anyone can sort me out a disc and a sleeve I'd happily pay costs?

Hey everybody ! Just want you to know, i've started a non-profit project of a digital restoration of the Bruceploitation classic : "Bruce Lee the man the myth aka Bruce Lee : True story ! After searching the best print available on video, i found out the German DVD has the nicest copy on the market (i wish i have acccess to 16/35mm  rolls and the money to work with it  ) Most of the restoration is done : First it was cleaned & upscaled (in 4k) with A.I tools then i did my part with Video editing softs to correct the video enhancement and adjust the details . So finally i have a fair & nice copy (of course it's not perfect but i did my best) : It's in Widescreen 2.35: 1 Ratio, UNCUT VERSION, in Cantonese,Mandarin,English & French  languages with partial English & French subs for the non-dubbed parts and soon complete English/French subs , you'll have extra languages dubbing like German,Spanish and Italian. I plan to release a custom-made Bluray with a bunch of bonus material available (we considering everything ! Pics,music , rare stuff ....) i have already 2 pretty well-known Bruceploitation experts for exclusive audio commentaries & interviews. Any Bruceploitation specialists are more than welcome ( @bruceleeclones ? Carl Jones ? @TheKungFuRobber ? )  i'll shoot a 25mn documentary about the movie so people feel free to join us ! i did some "re-constructed" trailers of the movie and the bluray will have more,  Bruce lee the man the myth- related artwork is welcome too ( Steven Morris ? @KUNG FU BOB ?) keep in mind it's a NON-PROFIT project but i may do some little Crowdfunding to cover the cost of the Blu-rays manufacturing at the end of the process. In the meantime the movie and most of the bonus material will be in Digital and FREE  ! Here are some links to see what it looks like : 

 

 

 

Just so you know this is getting a blu ray release in the near future from Micheal Worth  which will be an actual film scan instead of upscaled low quality material...

And we'll all buy that when it comes out. Though "Near Future" and Michael Worth could mean a long wait.

Just be mindful that the subs are for the Cantonese. You'll have to retime them to the Mando if you desire that.

There's also two sections where there's subs at the top of the screen as I had no room to put them below.

Also I forgot to mention that the subs were timed to the smaller file size with a frame rate of 25.

I had a look at the French only 10gig file to see the frame rate is 60. It might cause issues, if you know how to fix it.

Anyone noticed there are some missing subs on the coin trick scene?

The subs are dubtitles. So if there's no English audio for that part, that's the reason.

 

[newgen2005]

I don’t suppose anyone has a rip of the Japanese DVD? The one with burnt in subtitles but not cropped at bottom.

caps from the Japanese DVD upscaled

[newgen2005]

Which is the most complete version of this movie? Are there any DVD's that are not cropped to hide subtitles?

[saltysam]

German dvd is the best available
