I don't see how its been settled, people just talk about the differences on the thread you mentioned, but nothing in particular as to which one is better.
1) Movie is a movie not a still.
Therefore for proper comparison, must compare this kind of motion shot as given below. This shot is from YRF version, DEI shot required. (I guess, DEI-EROS one will beat YRF one.
2) For proper appreciation of Director's vision, OAR is required. In this case, YRF is preferrable.
But, in all the comparison shots above, any comments, which scene in the cropped version (DEI-EROS) looks incomplete or hiding something that director wanted us to see??3) What was the original audio format?? 5.1 or mono. Most films were mono in those days. DEI-EROS version is 2 Ch Dolby and YRF one is 5.1 as Harry-rasul said. Is it real 5.1 or fake 5.1.
Any comments on which version has better audio??
I'll repeat my post from the other thread:

This shot indicates Field Averaging?? Ali did comment YRF shorter run time perhaps due to PAL 4% speed up.

The time difference could be due to difference between PAL and NTSC (or miss mash of conversions done in between). Roughly PAL is 4% faster, so 2:56 NTSC would be about 2:46mins in PAL.
BBFC has reference run times too for film and video.

Looks like PAL to NTSC converted field averaged. If yes, no way YRF can beat DEI-EROS Progressive PQ.
On OAR issue, for sure YRF version is preferred. But, I'll choose Progressive over Field Averaged even if Progressive DVD is cropped.
Can anyone confirm if YRF version indeed is PAL to NTSC converted Field Averaged, as indications are??
