List of changes in Star Wars re-releases

I've been looking at the page above, and, particularly in the Special Edition sections, there seem to be some errors, so I thought I'd post them here to see if anyone can put either me, or the article, right:

New aliens are seen in the Cantina, and the Cantina music is played at a higher pitch and tempo.

Has someone just compared a PAL edition and an NTSC edition?

Exactly my thoughts as well, I've only listened to the '04 re-mix once, so I'm not sure about this one, but everything is possible in that horrible re-mix of course.

When Lando contacts Lobot, it is done silently rather than Lando sending a codeword.

What codeword?

And, possibly missing from the ROTJ section, doesn't the skiff that Han gets thrown from now rotate as well as tip, in the SE?

No idea what they're talking about. If they mean the audio signal from his "watch", it was still there in '04 IIRC.

Don't know about the skiff, I have to check.

In the 2004 DVD section:

More debris has been digitally added to the scene at the destroyed Jawa sandcrawler.

I looked for this months ago and could see no difference - am I missing something?

There's no alteration to that scene at all. Not what I can see.

The dialogue spoken by Jabba the Hutt in the scene where he is discussing the price for Chewbacca that had the subtitles added in the 1997 Special Edition has the subtitles removed, making C-3PO's verbal translations in the scene relevant again.

Were these ever really added to the SE? It's not mentioned in the SE section.

Interesting, in the '97 SE home video releases, that scene is subtitled in the same way as the original film, so I guess this is simply wrong, if it wasn't different on the actual '97 theatrical prints, which I really doubt.
