It's still very fuzzy, but for what it's worth, everything's there; no primitive DVNR like the 2006 DVD.

 Are you certain? My copy seems to have it, its just mostly less visible due to the lower definition of VHS. I heard a while ago that the PAL masters have a more conservative application of DVNR than the NTSC masters, but I don't think any post-1993 release of the OUT is completely smear-free.

Check shot changes from chroma issues, such as colours from the previous shot still visible in the following shot (usually for a couple of frames before it blends in) and 'residue' of blaster bolts (also visible for a frame or two after). You will most likely have to do this frame-by-frame to get a better look. These are temporal artefacts left as a result of the DVNR filtering.

If its truly smear-free then I'd love to get a look at this, and fix the apparent problem present in my capture setup (which I'm not ruling out as a possibility ATM)!
