"Jenufa," by Janácek, a favorite of mine, belongs in this category. The excellent production conducted by Andrew Davis is on DVD.

An excellent "Porgy and Bess" was staged by the Glyndebourne Festival Opera. It was later re-created in a large studio for DVD and issued by EMI. It is very good, but doesn't satisfy me completely.
