One difference I do know between PAL and NTSC is that PAL doesn’t have the same problems with aliasing that I’m trying to clean up with commands like TR2=5 or TR2=4. Some of the issues I have spent time fixing for NTSC just aren’t in the PAL copy.
If the NTSC sources are THAT bad, that you have to anti-alias by QTGMC-temporal-filtering with a window of 4 or 5, it’s really time for the PAL sources… I would never use this. If QTGMC, then always TR2=0 and StabilizeNoise=false. There are better ways to filter noise.
The native DVD credits for NTSC look terrible compared to PAL.
The PAL opening credits seem to stutter at nearly every episode by the end (wormhole opens), but there are a few episodes where the conversion is stutter-free - I just watched a lot of episodes, but forgot to take a note for the good ones.
The audio I will be able to handle (I know how to adjust the original NTSC audio so it fits/syncs with PAL without any pitch issues
You don’t have to change anything with audio (except there were small cut-differences, I don’t know), just slow the picture finally down to its (nearly) original 23.976fps with “assumefps(24000,1001)”.
