Kino Lorber "raw' version or VCI replacement Blu-ray

Sources: DVDBeaver (opens in a new tab)

Video Notes:

No comparison available

See DVDBeaver for the whole fiasco but Kino Lorber's main feature was a DNR mess but it fortunately included the "raw" version. VCI initially had a bitrate < 10 Mbps but have sent out new disc with bitrate around 35 Mbps.

UCLA has a new restoration done in 2015, but no release yet

Additional Info:

Only VCI has optional subtitle and commentaries, while Kino Lorber doesn't
