Criterion/Capelight Germany/Madman Australia 4K Blu-ray
Neither Criterion nor Germany Capelight 4K Blu-ray has good encoding https://slow.pics/c/bWhRoxpi also see Criterion review with disappointing compression per Geoff D

Since posting this, I watched the Capelight in full and the anomalies the caps reveal didn’t bother me in motion. I did look out for issues and can’t really complain. The trickiest scenes are those set in daylight, particularly in the third act, and the Criterion looks terrible here. Unfortunately the caps are just from the first hour but in doing comparisons with the discs, I noticed that Capelight managed to resolve detail more evenly and makes for a more satisfying experience in my mind.
Australia Madman is very similar to Criterion, see caps provided by Joel https://slow.pics/c/9MDRLoOl and https://slow.pics/c/1EVsFQCZ
