I offer myself to do it... not right now - I have several project on my agenda - but soon... after all, I've made a color regrading project on John Carpenter's movie "The Thing" with good results - and it will be revised to be almost perfect, soon or later - probably later...

Meanwhile, I could make a test to see if it's possible to produce good results: I just need a small clip (10/20s) of both BD and DVD, possibly lossless; to see if my technique produce artifacts, the scene should contain the highest white levels possible - usually a really bright light would go.

This is because, if the BD or DVD has clipping white, there will be ever problems on that affected shots, as I discovered myself with "The Matrix"... I worked hard to solve that problem, but after a month of testing, I realized that it's impossible to recover clipped whites, even if there are other way to accomplish that task for those scenes too, it will takes only more time...

And I strongly suggest everyone to do a Color IQ test, to discover if you have color vision problems, or your display is not well calibrated (or worst, both...)
