Actually, both of those things were already quite visible in the GOUT

and I bet that at least the tape could be spotted even in a VHS transfer, so I don't think these are exactly the kind of details you'd notice because of the high resolution, just like when some ILM guys were saying at some press conference how awesome the "new" BD transfer is and how you can now see some mistakes that you'd have never seen before and as an example they gave a shot in ESB where you can see the pole that sticks out from the ground to knock over one of the AT-ATs - which is laughable, because I checked and this was very clearly visible even in a widescreen VHS transfer.

Also, this picture is the GOUT with increased contrast and saturation and with the red push compensated for.

@bkev: Most of the flashes already got sort of fixed by You_Too's settings and I tried to get them all but if I missed some, I'm sure h_h will point them out with his usual exactness and they'll be fixed :-) You also need to keep in mind that I went a little overboard with some of the flashes in v1.0, in the GOUT, some of the flashes are sort of pinkish, not always deeply red.
