A video of the last portion of the approach has been produced.

Asiana 214 ver 2 - YouTube

If accurate, it seems the the right lateral offset that developed was the reason this aircraft didn't descend into the approach lighting system.

Also, the exemplar aircraft is only programmed to follow the correct glide path, not the correct speed for the approach.
