In the latter case you could just merge the chroma plane!

Oh yeah, if you can match the frames perfectly (both spatial and temporal alignments) then this can help A LOT and I have done this on numerous projects and am still doing this on some stuff I'm working on...
Just keep in mind that it will NOT always match and then you have to start playing games or just have to acknowledge that it can't be done. I have had projects "hit a wall" because I couldn't get frames to align since they came from different film sources that had frames warped in different ways...

The NTSC RW DVD is not a constant stretch across the picture unlike the BD which is correct. The DVD is stretch by a lot in the middle, then a little less off center to not at all on the sides. Its why my RW project has taken a while since that throws off any color matching software. Its a mess of a transfer.

The LD from what I remember has a little bit different aspect ratio but nothing shocking

Hey spoRv I'd really love to see these comparisons, but they're all down
 Any chance you can reup?

Sadly my home connection is down...
Let remind me in few days.

So bumping up that one. I have two different sources commercial encodes from a 4/3 film that happens to be open matte. They are H264 and have about 2gb size difference, one having more grain than the other, and the one with lesser grain being slighty better color corrected.
They align perfectly as they use the same source remaster scan. I want to PanUp by getting the encodes in a timeline, mixing them, and reframing at 1.66:1. As this involves a blown up, should I PanUp at 720p, (thus reducing pixels size), or blow it up to 1080p? From comments here, it seems that upscaling must be used for best results.

You have to try both, and decide which is better...
 Hint: if you want more grain (source 1) and retain better colors (source 2), give source 1 more weight than source 2 - let's say 66/34 or 75/25 - and then use source 2 chroma.

I'm planning on using Resolve for this, you mean maybe do a 66/34 or 75/25 of the luma only, then add the second release full chroma over it?
