I can at least give you the most current versions of each:

4K83 - all listed below use Sanjuro’s color grade, though usually with minor adjustments by either ohteedee (no/minimal DNR) or SkyDude (medium/heavy/max DNR)

  • No DNR: v1.1 (1080p and 2160p MKVs)
  • Minimal DNR: v1.3 (1080p and 2160p MKVs) (this is effectively “no DNR” in that it targets just the chroma noise introduced during scanning, but it’s impossible to guarantee no film grain is affected, so it isn’t labeled as “no DNR”)
  • Medium DNR: v1.1 (2160p MKV and 1080p Blu-Ray)
  • Heavy DNR: v1.2 (1080p MKV and 1080p Blu-Ray)
  • Maximum DNR: v1.2.2 (2160p MKV)

I don’t know how many of the 4K83 DNR variants have made it out into the wild other than MySpleen. DNR work on the medium/heavy/max DNR releases by SkyDude, minimal DNR by ohteedee.

If I missed anything, someone please chime in to correct me!

Were there any color changes with 4k83 v1.3? I seem to recall that the color grading was refined from v1.1 noDNR, but I could just be imagining things.
