Audio problem with cantina sequence in Harmy's Despecialized Edition

Hi, everyone. I’m new to these forums, so I apologize if this question has already been answered or if it’s inappropriate for the General Discussion section.

I downloaded the v2.5 MKV version of A New Hope and, for the most part, I’m very happy with it. There were a few times when I noticed that the audio in the film was curiously muted, however. The biggest error which I noticed occurs during the Mos Eisley cantina sequence at 45:22, when that snake creature (Dice Ibegon) approaches the wolfman (Lak Sivrak). The snake is supposed to make a squeaking noise during this moment, followed by the wolfman’s growl.

Currently, the wolfman still growls – but the snake’s squeaking noise has been muted.

Did anyone else notice this?

I think it’s also worth noting that JawsTDS’s recent GOUT upscales come with lossless PCM versions of the 93 mixes rather than the lossy versions that comes with the DE. If you really want the 93 mix, I’d recommend downloading that and mixing it into the Harmy MKV.

Mono or go home! (Just sayin’.)

Oh, and welcome!
