I have had an audio-only partial copy of this show for many years but just got this video in trade and was pleasantly surprised that it was 94 minutes long instead of the previous 37 minutes. However I found the video and audio to be slightly out of synch so this copy was extracted without re-encoding and then synched up by delaying the audio by 5 frames. The selection menu and chaptering has also been tightened up but otherwise no other changes.

Lineage: DVD received in trade > Cinematize (elementary stream extraction to m2v / ac3 files) > DVD Studio Pro (synching of audio and video, new chaptering and selection menu) > VIDEO_TS file set. md5 file created with xACT.
