i'm not using the cropping diagrams.

this is a just a straight dump of the image

from the DVD VOB file, against the frame captures

we have.

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. I didn't mean the diagrams you showed in that thread, I meant that your raw-to-GOUT comparisons are likely inaccurate. I just can't believe that isolated shots would be cropped that close. It doesn't match with my findings on how reel 3 was cropped.

My point was, I don't try to overlay images when I do my comparisons. I just try to find the edges of each transfer and draw them onto the raw frame. That way, I don't have to worry about the warping/distortion of the transfers. (As I said, I think the GOUT has a "curve" to the image, with the picture starting to get narrower on the sides.)

Do you have a test clip containing that scene with Ben walking down the hall?
