This video has a bit too much blue in it's image don't know why and I'm sure it's not meant to be there.... If you look closely you should see a blue shade of some sort it's maby just the wrong color format like it's RGB when meant to be like YVY or something but heres a sample just if there's a way to fix it...

The ChannelMixer plugin for AviSynth is one filter that can adjust the colors. One problem here, though, is that if you pull out blue, the skin tones take on a yellowish color. Your main problem is horribly crushed blacks (and blown whites), if that pic is an accurate representation of how the DVD looks. Below is a pic with some of it improved, but once all shadow detail is lost, there's just no way to get it back.

You'll notice that even with the blue lowered just a little, her leg already starts to turn a bit yellow:

#ChannelMixer(RR, RG, RB, GR, GG, GB, BR, BG, BB)
ChannelMixer(100,0,0,0, 100, 0,0,0,95)
ConvertToYUY2(Matrix="PC.601")
Tweak(Sat=1.2,Cont=0.85,Coring=False)
Levels(0,1.4,255,0,255,Coring=False)
Letterbox(58,58)

I'm sure others are better at this than I.
