The video was remastered to improve color stability and balance towards overall neutral tones.

AI upscale (Topaz AI) was used to resample and clean up the video to HD resolution. While it works in most cases, some artifacts may be present in some sequences. If you prefer to view the original low-resolution footage reduce quality to 480p.

Sound and image cleanup, AI upscale and color restoration by RetroSpace HD. Some music segments might be replaced by background sounds or generic themes.
