NOTES
Demuxed with latest DGDemux with merge DV function. Used superior video of Synapse Films UHD, as it was encoded by Fidelity in Motion and due the to higher bitrate, retains the grain more tight and with less distortions, while on Camera Obscura there's more "e;loose"e; grain and slight less overall PQ vs the USA, the FRA is the worse overall with a worse encode and a total overboard grade with nuked highlights by jacking the contrast and over brightness. So all in all, with that said and with the Synapse having Dolby Vision, the definitive release is the Synapse.
All UHDs have the dual monos, they're practically the same with slight better dynamic range over the NTSC DVD, but essentially it's the same track. I went with the FRA UHD as it had less dithering, boosting and more similar levels as the DVD, worth mentioning the previous USA Blu-ray from Distribpix has a clear downmix 2.0 and not the original mono. Comparisons. Kept the dual mono, due to slight
For 5.1 remixes, the new 5.1 ones are much better than the one done by Distribpix (despite being 24-bit and with higher bitrate that doesn't mean a thing), with the center properly set and its activity, like the previous dual mono, all UHDs have the same track, opted with the Synapse as it had slight higher dynamic range;
For the commentary done in 2016, the choice was having the Distribpix lossless one, as it was recorded to said label, others have that track mangled, the fra with a terrible compression despite being lossless it's compressed to hell and sounds like a zoom meeting recording; others while faring better still have the track with a weird sync and with a worse cutoff. So obvious choice was pairing the lossless from Distribpix to the remux (with a sync requiring for 2 frames missing).
Commentary done in 2003 was also recorded for the Synapse Films NTSC DVD of said year, and the one on the UHD is really bad, they went and compressed the hell out of the track and then boosted to a much louder track, but the quality is terrible vs the original one, so I had to sync the NTSC to UHD, since there were a lot of syncs and patching required, this track was done lossless 16-bit.
Additional PGS tonemapped from FRA UHD, Distribpix English commentary was synced accounting the frame differences, and offered proper versions of it as text based, as the PGS has a lot of errors, one of the most glaring being a wrong transcribing of the directors name of "e;Z"e;, which is Costa-Gravas, was transcribed as "e;cost of"e;. The German sub for commentary didn't fare better and its sync is completely botched, so I had to edit several times to make the sync proper till the end of the commentary. Ocr'd srts from NOR PAL vobsubs, and synced to the remux. Named chapters from the Synapse NTSC DVD, as the Distribpix ones were pretty bad almost at the level of the amazon ones, and they were synced to I-frames of remux.
