And before anyone asks "what's the point," a standard def downconversion from hi-def retains a LOT of extra detail and image clarity not present in a 480-line master.

I think someone posted a few screenshots demonstrating this using the 1080p files but I'm not sure if anyone has made and posted a DVD from it.
Since we can't locate the screenshots, I made my own:
