Seems you have a different mastering than Arnie.d's X9 cap

Interesting... I can understand that there was re-pressings made but you have to wonder why a new mastering took place of these releases. My JSC ESB proved to be a different mastering compared to Arnie.d's ESB cap as well.

It's stuff like this that makes me wary of TooT'ing three captures from three different pressings of the same LD release; e.g., TooT'ing captures from three different JSC sets, like what althor1138 wants to do.

Without a bunch of safeguards in place, you have to perfectly spatially- and temporally-align each capture. This usually isn't difficult, but how would you know if one of the three sets has a quirk (like the different mastering above) without doing a frame-by-frame scan?

I wish we had a good method for dropout/rot detection. I'd really prefer to do one excellent capture and fix dropouts/rot manually in PFClean.
