The "burns" on the PAL discs, if I'm correct, seem to occur regularly on the frame prior to a scene change. However, I think the DC set exhibits the same defects, so maybe Karyudo is talking about something else. I don't have the ability or patience to rotoscope out such things, and I don't find dirt/scratches too objectionable (I feel they add a little authenticity and "retro" feel to the transfer

The dot crawl is a bit disappointing, and it's exacerbated by the sharpening. I realise it's because the 3-line 2D comb filter in the D925 isn't the best. Karyudo, do you think that capturing from the composite output of a 2950 with a SweetSpot card (contains a more advanced 3D comb filter) would give a visible improvement?
