The video apparently comes straight from the HD master approved by David Lynch originally for his Lime Green DVD Set, but this time presented in its full HD resolution.

My dreams have come true and Criterion has announced such a release on Blu-Ray this October 17, 2017, featuring a newly forged 4K master film transfer supervised by David Lynch and number of retrospective featurettes and interviews.
