+ 2. This is very disappointing and I hope it doesn't start a trend especially with Disney titles although GizmoDVD indicated that Tangled might be also be a lossy title.

Yeah, Gizmo are you just guessing or have you seen this somewhere?

The back of Bambi from Amazon UK clearly shows the logos for:

Dolby Digital (5.1)
DTS Surround (DTS 5.1)
DTS Master Audio (DTS 7.1 HD)

I think someone else confirmed it was HR and not MA on another forum, even for the UK release. I could be wrong though.

Has anyone actually checked the audio on their system? Just because it says HR doesn't mean it is HR.

Which version do you have that says this?

That conflicts with the UK version that says Master Audio.

And on another forum I went to *shudder* that I won't name:


So it listed MA, but had HR. Looks like even Tangeled might end up this way if it's an error on the artwork. I doubt it though, since it's a new release.

is a in-store coupon from Disney Home Video/Movie Rewards being released for the purchase of Bambi ??

Check the Blu-Ray bargains thread. It's been out for a while, now.

That one was taken down a couple days ago, but a new one has now replaced it. If he checked in the interim, he wouldn't have found anything.

yeah the coupon had expired, supposedly DMR might be putting online another coupon. Went the Barnes and Noble route, since they also have a 10 dollar off deal also.

So someone please explain, why would a company decide to go with audio HR instead of MA? Is it possible they went with HR because there were too many noise artifacts to be mastered in lossless?

Definitely getting this one. I wonder if Bambi II will be made available again to go with it?

Both the 7.1 remix and the original stereo soundtrack should be lossless on Bambi. The film is 70 minutes long and a majority of the bonus material is in standard definition. You could have both audio tracks in lossless at a bit rate of 10mbps and there would still be plenty of space available.
