How do you access it?

It just automatically plays and in a loop. When I was testing to see if it played on region B/C.

I tried seeing if I could find an access on menu, but can't find a way.

On disc two you just get text saying this a region A lock disc.

Japanese DTS-HD Master Audio 5.0 [Case does state 4.0, so one speaker could mute.]

- Menu misstates Japanese 5.1 (both)

So the menu says 5.1, case says 4.0, but you confirmed it's actually 5.0 and not 4.0? what do you mean by "so one speaker could mute" ?

My player, when I press the info button shows 5.0 (and lists no subwoofer).
However, I'm suggesting that since they state 4.0 on the back, that they're utilizing a 5.0 track/file, but only using four of the speaker.

Is one of the speakers silent? Which one?

[Matthew_B_Harrah]

Is one of the speakers silent? Which one?

Can't tell since don't have a speak system. Just a TV with 6.0. Placed my ear to see could hear any difference, anticipating this probable conversation. Since we had this same thing happen back on "Galaxy Express 999: Eternal Fantasy". If fact my suggestion is the same suggestion you gave back then. However, logic and traditional 4.0 is usually Left, Right, front and surround (rear) channels. [Been doing some research lately for future purchase after I one day get a 4K TV.]

[James-Masaki_Ryan]

Added it as 4.0 for the audio, and I've updated it with

The original 4.0 track is encoded as 5.0.

Okay, thanks.
Hopefully, if I get the OVA [still debating it, it come out on the 25th] we won't come across an issue there. Discotek Media is one, if not the best, anime distributor in the US, but their many strange [or for a lack of a better word] anomalies are ridiculous. There is always at least one or more, at least with releases I get.
