 Sorry I missed your call for help, Silverwook. Because (as we all know):

I looked around eBay again (even completed auctions) for a seller with a complete set of pictures -- still nothing. And most of them just use eBay's stock photo!

So, I put my own disc [note WB logo] into the previous Warner 1999 picture set. This now is the proper Warner 1999 DVD package to look for ..
         

And I don't mind restating for a sum-up:

  • MGM      1998 DVD -- mono/panned dialog1; missing H.A.L.'s spoken "I read you."
  • Warner 1999 DVD -- mono/panned dialog1; includes H.A.L.'s spoken "I read you."
  • Warner 2001 DVD -- mono/centered dialog1,2; includes H.A.L.'s spoken "I read you."

1:  from listening to Floyd/receptionist chat at space station arrival
2:  only person-to-person is centered; person-to-monitor (for example - "Voice Print Identification") is still panned


And, for completeness, here's the Warner 2001 DVD release's H.A.L. audio screenshot ..

.. and the Warner 2001 DVD package on eBay [go to link for zoom-in views] ..
