Restoration Process:
The original negative was retransferred to high-definition videotape to restore these shows that were originally packaged on standard definition analog videotape. Additional grain elimination, sharpness enhancements and color corrections were made. The visual effects were recreated in HD and the show was mastered in 5.1 audio for the first time ever. These shows were shown in HD on PBS in the United States and on NHK in Japan.
These new DVD’s were encoded from the HD masters and preserve the HD aspect Ratio (16:9). The quality is far superior to previous versions but please note that the image is not true HD because DVD is a standard definition format.
