from memory, there isn't a DTS-MA 5.1 English track for it at all. closest to it is aa Dolby Digital 5.1 (640 kbps) on the Australian Blu-ray and a LPCM 2.0 track on the UK disc (be warned though as the first UK BD didn't have the English track, just a dubbed French track which they had to re-press)

there is also a DTS 5.1 track on the Japanese and Korean DVD's but that's the only DTS track released for it.

from what i recall on the other thread, there are a few subtle differences in timing between the two and some alternate footage as well as detailed here

the titles are also slightly different in both cuts

OK so it wouldn't be just a simple edit then, there is alternate footage and such, so it is just like our Conan project, thank God for Netflix HD for the alternate cuts for that or it would have never been possible.

Would you happen to have the DTS or DD tracks in English for the long version by any chance? I would hate to think I wasted my time downloading this to not be able to find one lol.

The edited version you mentioned above is that the US version? there are so many different versions there it is hard to tell what is what.
