Director: Wolfgang Petersen
Arrow 4K Blu-ray Both cuts are excellent in 4K. See caps
DC: 2007 WB Blu-ray, Arrow is from a lossy transcode
From CiNEPHiLES:
Well I did see the issue from the arrow track being just a transcode of the previous ac3 DVD or Blu-ray, with dynamic range compression, wasn’t clear at the time because usually, all do comparisons from the tracks without said settings (drc_scale 0), but with default from ffmpeg does get about the same as arrow. I guess was tricked due to the lower gains and change of dynamic range which also the MA has, seems all derived from a DRC’d ac3 supplied by Warners to Arrow, maybe not really a near field mix. So removed the redundant track and only the previous one as default as it was, with named changed to surround mix. I had this done a week ago, but I didn’t know if it was worth of repack because the main audio is good, and it would’ve hurt the swarm, but alas here it is.
For BD:
Theatrical: Czech/Polish/Russian Warner Bros Blu-ray
Director's Cut: Warner Bros Blu-ray
