From what I've heard the German FAFDM used MGM's transfer but did so without the extra processing and DNR MGM applied so that specks, dirt and grain are more visible.
This is true, yet I still stand by my assessment that the IT BD looks better overall than the DE BD. The MGM master, even with the extra processing taken off, just looks terrible to my eyes.
That said, the IT does not have English audio. Though, both the 5.1 and mono have been synced to it, the latter by a member of this forum.

Also I don't believe his version includes the original mono?
jimbotron235's release does include the original mono thankfully :)

The edit is completed.
Changes made:
- Removed opening restoration credit
- Removed Harmonica recovering from gunshot
- Restored original Finale music (from OST), removing the spliced-in Cheyenne theme. The result is pretty seamless. There are no foley effects with the restored music. Having listened to it several times, I don't miss them.
Video: 1920x816 AVC @ 18Mbps
Audio:
- 5.1 FLAC (Sourced from Blu-ray DTS-HD mix)
- PCM 1.0 Mono (sourced from Laserdisc, provided by NeonBible and Lil Brutto) (44.1Khz 705Kbps) This was from the "Theatrical" version so I needed to splice in about 30 seconds from the "Restored" version.
- DD 1.0 Mono (sourced from Blu-ray) (originally 112Kbps 48Khz)
Length: 2:44:03

The 5.1 mix is FLAC instead of the original DTS-HD because Premiere doesn't output to DTS/Dolby. The BD mono is expanded to PCM for the same reason.
