BOTH STAR WARS (1977) DESPECIALIZED 2.7 & SILVER SCREEN EDITION:

First off, and forgive me if this sounds rather hyperbolic, I want to say that watching both of these films on my Samsung Smart TV was nothing short of a spiritual experience! I was astonished and speechless by the brilliance of these editions and I am definitely looking forward to see Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi in the same way.

That said, there is a small problem that I’m curious about: The scene when the Millennium Falcon was caught in the Death Star’s tractor beam and the confused Luke and Hans starts arguing about it, I noticed the scene’s volume decreased a little (it went back to normal when Obi-Wan tells Han about there being other alternatives). Now on the 2.7 edition, I turned it to English 2 on the Audio Language setting and noticed the scene was pretty normal with the sound (I also like to mention that when I turn it to English 3, I can actually hear the sound of the tractor beam whereas I can’t hear it in 1 and 2).

In the Silver Screen edition, which lacks the Audio Language setting, the same decreasing-volume problem arose in the same scene.

It’s not extremely bothersome, but it’s pretty weird. I mean, does anyone else have this problem? Is this something irreversible? What can I do?
