Technically LPCM is considered "uncompressed" audio, not lossless audio.

Is the trailer on the Blu-ray in 1080p?

[Darrel_Griffin]

Yes, I already included 1080p in brackets:

"Original Trailer (3:03) (AVC MPEG-4 1080p24, English Dolby Digital 2.0 mono, optional English HoH subtitles)"

I hope that answers your question, but if I am misunderstanding, please let me know.


As for LPCM, it is lossless in the general sense of information theory. It is arguably not "lossless compression" since it is uncompressed, but I was trying to make clear the distinction between the audio on the Blu-ray vs the DVD, where one is lossy and the other is not. To me, "lossy vs lossless" is easier to understand than "lossy vs uncompressed". But change it if you wish.

Sorry, missed that as well. Added now. Thankyou.
