Surround upmix taken from Universal USA as the upmix on DVD/GER are lossy and sound much worse. Upmix on Kino Lorber USA is dithered to 16-bit, otherwise effectively the same mix. Stereo on Kino Lorber is a downmix of the 5.1 so it was excluded.

The original 4.0 stereo mix on Kino Lorber USA was provided in a 5.1 container with the first surround channel mirrored to the other. R, L, C, and S channels were demuxed as RF64 wavs and placed into the proper 4.0 container with DTS MAS.

English commentary tracks taken from Kino Lorber USA BD as the commentary on the UHD had worse encodes with brick wall filters at ~13.7 kHz with the exception of the 2nd commentary.

ESP assets were not used as it's a Resen bootleg disc.
