German WW2 newsreels (1944)

Hi all!
Continuing my strange questions series again.
Is there anyone in this forum who has German WWII newsreels for around March 1944? I found a homepage for "German Language Video Center"
(http://germanvideo.com/) and they do have such newsreels in video format. As they seem to be US site, I think the video format is wrong for European use.
More importantly the site has a description of newsreels numbers 705 and 707 (= Volume 67 / # CH 767) ( http://germanvideo.com/war/through_enemy_eyes_4.html) which
is described to include also shots from Narva Front (Borderline of Estonia) and dive-bombers for March 1944. These films would be of special interest for me. I just would
like to know if the films really have some worthwhile pictures actually shot at the location vs. "stock material". Newsreel 707 is said also to have some Major Baer footage.
Thanking in advance,
Kari
