All I have on LD for this is the LD68952-2WS but you've obviously got that one.

THIS would probably be the audio to have ..... finding invites to places that might shed more light on things like this are so hard to come by.

Oh DVHS: software isn't too hard...but the hardware sure is.

Yeah, I looked a hardware last month for another reason, and getting it in the UK where it never came out is a nightmare

So I don't know if these images would help anything, but...

From what I can see they look like standard anamorphic with Dolby surround

Is this the first DVD you were referring to:

?

I have this one. The picture is more natural compared to the Ultimate Edition which features heavy contrast boosting and Edge Enhancement. I have listened to the mix a few times and compared it in the past and it seems a little quieter than other releases from memory, but not sure of the specifics. The first release Region A blu-ray is also a lot quieter than the later T2 blu-ray releases, and my HD-DVD sounds (to my ears) the same as the latest T2 blu-rays.

Just out of curiosity, what was the picture and sound quality of the HD version theatrical cut that came with the "Extreme" DVD release? As this was in 2003, it was only playable on a PC. Can it still be played today?

I cannot find my disc, it was a few years back.

It is not fantastic and it suffers from poor grain retention due to a low bit rate

That is the one that has a different mix and was rumoured to be the CDS mix
