Why not encode a simple low bitrate avi or mp4, which could serve as a timing reference. DVD streams are problematic and this is all that would be needed to set a timing standard.

Sure, I can do that. But, I often see the lament over not having a decent looking version of the '97SE, so I figured I could as well upload the finished encode when I'm at it, so that people can remux it with whatever they want. The timing reference is the NTSC 2004 transfer, so whatever is synced to that will match my file as well.

Sorry for being off topic, I can start another thread if there's need for it.
