Rifftrax The Last Shark HD

Thanks to Bobjoe for the sync. As they noted, the PAL source is far superior to the NTSC disc, however as usual with PAL discs everything is sped up ~4% to achieve the 25FPS (Mike and the guys actually sound a little younger with the resulting higher pitch). I corrected this, and it's running now at the proper 23.976FPS. I also ran an AI filter (ArtemisLQv13) which has mixed results because of the overall low quality of the picture (the disc is essentially 400p instead of the usual 480/576p). As such, I've also included a non-upscaled, but fixed, DVDRip that I created using the PAL DVD.

Nice job. Thanks as always!

Belated thanks for this, Riffling! I was going to suggest a 720 version because the upscaling might be less noticeable, but I see that the real problem was all the "artifacts" in the original video that needed to be smoothed out, rather than just adding lines of resolution. So it would probably look about the same anyway. This looks great, and it seems more colourful too.
