The only way this would ever work as HD is if you scan ONLY the non-SE footage to replace the SE footage, and then combine it with the existing HD broadcast of the 'unaltered' remainder. And even that would be a huge undertaking- just replacing a few minutes of SE footage would consist of thousands of frames.

Scanning every single frame in HD (over 180,000 of them)......never gonna happen.

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but I'm just being realistic.

Even a DVD version will still be better than what we have now: the GOUT.

A SD scan would hardly be worth the effort, IMO. I don't think the results would be even close to the tremendous results G-force & dark_jedi are getting from the GOUT with the stabilization scripts.
