Info Wanted: Identifying "official" despecialized vs altered versions?

Upon reflection, i see that you are aware that your copy doesn’t have all the audio tracks, so the hash is useless for you.

Bingo. I wasn’t looking to do this the hard way 😉
Thats what I get for trying to save same bandwidth and only get the audio tracks of languages I speak.

Thank you for your help in deciphering this!

What do you mean? The number of reframes are different, the format profile is different, the # of pixels per frame are different, the Bits/Pixel*Frame are different, and the stream size is different. Something is different about the encoding / compression, even though they are both the AVC version.

Version 1:
Format profile : High@L4.1
Format settings, ReFrames : 5 frames
Bit rate : 13.5 Mb/s
Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.611
Stream size : 12.6 GiB (75%)

Version 2:
Format profile : High@L4
Format settings, ReFrames : 3 frames
Bit rate : 6 341 kb/s
Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.287
Stream size : 5.84 GiB (87%)

Info Wanted: Identifying "official" despecialized vs altered versions?
Time

I’ve tried to make sure I have the latest / greatest despecialized versions. Thank you to the entire community for creating and continuing this amazing project.

I recently “upgraded” 2.5 to 2.7. And in the process I was checking the differences between my copies of ROTJ as well. I realize that file sizes may differ b/c some people have removed certain audio tracks or subtitles or whatever to keep file sizes down, I guess.

However, in checking the technical specs with MediaInfo, I noticed some differences in the encoding specs. Can you please help me identify which is the “official” processing?
