UPSCALE Linkin Park - Live in Texas (Upscale-1080p)

My most time consuming upscale yet, this one took me almost a week between pre-filtering, upscaling to a PNG sequence with 255 thousand frames, post-filtering and exporting as AVI uncompressed and encoding in H264. Also, it took me 3 terabytes of space haha I managed to reduce this one to 15 GBs but couldn't reduce more than that, because it's a somewhat grainy source. Because of the filming/editing style, it's not a very sharp result after all, because 80% of it is made of out of focus/shaky shots. But still, I think it's the best looking result we have so far.

Source: NTSC DVD, deinterlaced with QTGMC. I kept the original frame rate of 59.94 fps because of the drum shots, that were mostly shot on video. Both original AC-3 audios (in 5.1 and stereo) were muxed in this MP4 file.
