I gave up on the workprint recreation, as the German DVD is a really bad NTSC -> PAL conversion with interlacing everywhere and I can't convert the Thai VCD to a more usable format without macroblocking appearing everywhere for some reason.

What I did finish was almost 110 minutes at NTSC speed, however. I used the Thai VCD for the better part of it and inserted missing shots using the German DVD. I stopped during the first boat scene in the last third. If I were to continue, I would have used only untimed shots, as that would have been the way the workprint looked.
