In the meantime, check out the Commando Trailer that I Upscaled in Topaz Gigapixel to 8k (I used the web version, before they discontinued the service): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Btwt9LPWVG8

is that D+ you have SwatDB 720p or the full 1080p (I can’t grab it at that resolution as don’t have L1 key to decrypt) or is it just a straight screenshot of the stream itself.

It is a straight screenshot with the help of "Sandboxie" which bypasses the DRM, and as I took the screenshot, I made sure that the Heads-Up-Display dosen't pop up.

Ah, no worries, my 720p will do for now until either Amazon get it or UHD gets released.

Amazon AMC+ has this up and it's the new master in 1.78.

Hopefully someoene can get this ripped! I will get the LD audio synced

Ripped the AMC+ (AMZN) 1080p the other day before seeing post above. Have slowed it down to 23.976, and manually removed about 150 duplicates (using smart render) due to original incorrect frame change to 24hz (all of AMC encodes are like this, True Lies went one step more and was incorrectly further changed to 60hz, nightmare file that was). Removed 9 Fade out/in's (meant for commercials)/added end scene/credits using the D+ UK 720p upscaled and also frame matched to D+.

Have created one version using the D+ 720p stretched for fade out/ins/end scene/credits (I prefer that to cropping) removing 1.85:1 black bars and leaving Open Matte of AMC+ using smart render to preserve untouched video as much as possible outside of a few frames at either side of duplicate frame removal and fade out/in's.

In the process of creating a second version preserving the 1.85:1 asoect ratio of D+ (upscaled to 1080p without stretch for fade out/ins) and adding black bars to top and bottom of AMC+ to match
in Premiere and then will export using voudoker to CRF 16 preserving as much video quality as possible.

Will then add the majority of both audio and sub sync's Stamper did for D+.

This is interesting, I had thought about doing a Commando project at some point. Here are a few comparison screens:

The screenshot X5gb put up earlier:



The Blu Ray (note this is from a small size rip not the uncompressed disc)



A PAL Laserdisc open matte rip:



I no longer have the DVD so could not compare that.

I just got WEB from the Russian cinema and more content from all sides

Good find, maksnew!

Awesome. If you keep the 720p sync, it's going to be easy to add all the subs and audio tracks, making it pretty exhaustive re: original mixes.
