It seems a new 2K restoration has been made and is now out on bluray disc.
See https://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.php?p=23269598&postcount=1I have not yet been able to compare this with the version here.
I have compared. The new transfer (viewed from blu-ray, 1480x1080, 24 FPS) is a great improvement of the video.
- Details are much better.
- Colors are much better.
- Old transfer had many frames with temporal bleeding fron neighbor frames (see for example DVD fram 41974, but other examples are easily found throughout), this is no longer the case.
- Some frames have been removed. All those that I have identified are either part of black sections or problematic single frames (see for example DVD frame 42173 with very visible damage at the bottom of the frame) that have been cut.
It would be very nice to have the Swedish, Danish, English and French audio (dub/narration) to match with the new bluray video.
However, even after doing a video 24->25 FPS or audio 25->24 conversion and matching up the audio/video start there is still a gradually slipping time difference of up to ~18/27 seconds due to the small cuts throughout. A proper matching will take some effort to find the many cut spots and make all the micro timeshifts to keep in sync.
