From what I can tell (due to Tom's excellent explanation) the DVD looks to be progressive.

Hehe Grim, I'm glad you asked, I got a £10 gift voucher from work, so used that.

Ok dudes I ordered Steamboy Director's Cut for a tenner....

It just arrived - the thing's a brick!! Like a limited edition or something. Really good for a tenner.

(I was expecting a normal DVD tbh).

I ordered Digital Video Essentials calibration disc from Amazon Jersey for £11.99.

I'm not sure if that would be a worthwhile purchase, IM. I can't see the tests being much better than the THX ones you get on various DVDs.
And if you've got some high-end AV gear, then the disc you would actually need would probably be a bit more expensive; a mate of mine has a really great set-up and the calibration disc he got was closer to £40. Now, he might've been ripped off, but he's usually pretty astute with these kinda things...
