Okay. I've come across this a few times when examining audio tracks for films. Is there a good explanation for what I see below?
Kill Bill Vol. 1 16-bit L-PCM 5.1 from Blu-ray:
Kill Bill Vol. 1 DTS 5.1 from Japanese DVD (Ignore extra length. Due to it being the uncut version of the film):
Practically the same audio mix, with the volume cranked loud enough on the Blu-ray to cause clipping. Is Audacity just reading these incorrectly at all? If not, how common is it that audio tracks on Blu-rays and 4K UHD discs get the dynamic range butchered due to clipping?
I was hoping to piece together the higher quality audio from the Blu-rays and inserting audio for the uncut scenes from the Japanese DVD to be used for "Whole Bloody Affair" fan edits. Looking at what I see above, I'm not sure whether it's worthwhile now.
