There was a diagonal optical wipe in the theatrical release that was replaced with a straight cut on the DVD. This was then restored on the BD, so the BD is the theatrical version.

It isn’t. There was some CG crap added to the Wookie huts and there are some changes in the soundtrack.

That Youtube video compares the DVD and the BD; we know from the absence of the wipe that the DVD is not the theatrical. Just wondering if the workprint has the clone voices and the Wookiee hut rust?

No, those are BD additions. Audio shouldn’t be a problem as I have the Theatrical DTS mix prepped already for this. The '05 DVD didn’t have any noticeable changes either, iirc.
