Transfers Notes: The generations of both transfers are unsure at the moment. Transfer 1 has been circulated, it is on 1 disc and has been transferred at a lower bitrate then transfer 2. Transfer 2 has been circulated on 2 discs and may also be transferred onto a dual-layer disc in the near future. The transfers appear to be of similar quality, although Transfer 1 is noticeably brighter and is encoded at a much lower bit rate. Both transfers are in PAL, an NTSC conversion of Transfer 1 has been performed but due to the conversion it is of inferior quality.
