Maybe I just play too many PC games, but the aliasing has never bothered me. Especially this transfer, seems much better than others.

I'm wondering if there might be some way to blend the VHS into the picture a little bit and see if that takes care of some of the rainbowing, but it's probably too far "out there". I'm looking at the caps I took, and it seems like there might be less of it (or at least it's in different spots maybe), but it's hard to tell as it was never that bad in any of those shots.

I thought the JSC had less aliasing going by the few preservations I have seen but it has been some time since I watched them so I may be wrong. I have no idea how you would do such a thing as blend in VHS footage, but I really hate those chroma artifacts, Threepio looks like a damn christmas tree in some shots.

I do notice some sharpening artifacts (they're much more noticable in Aluminum Falcon's captures), but it's not as bad looking as it is in the JSC.

The edge enhancement/haloing you're seeing is present in the source unfortunately, no sharpening was applied. What captures done by AF do you refer to?

Anyway, I'm glad that you like this one Asaki, hopefully you can now stop wear out your tape of this transfer. ;)
