Thanks for pointing me out to the 4.0 DTS mix, would be a nice companion to the 5.1 DTS LD soundtrack indeed!

Ok i took a look at the HD-DVD vs. the PAL Laserdisc and tried some cc on the HD DVD material. Except for nostalgic reasons i don't see much benefit in using the laserdisc:

HD DVD color-corrected (frist attempt, open for suggestions):

The HD-DVD does not look very good in the first place is of low resolution + bad telecine (old master) + heavy processing, but i still think its looks alright somehow.

If anyone would be interessted in a "pure" LD perservation i could make one using the 560 and put it somewhere? (Quality would match what you see in post above).


Thoughts?
