And Now for Something Completely Different (1969) Blu-ray

https://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/ ... ?fid=32464


---
Blu-ray A Japan - Paramount Home Entertainment

- released in 2012


---
Blu-ray Germany - Capelight

- released in 2017
- region ALL (confirmed by me, and also on Blu-ray.com)
- The trailer can play with English or German audio (no subtitles available for either language), but the audio language needs to be selected from the main menu.
- Bonus trailers are in German.
- Incorrectly states Region B on back of case.

So far, I have not been able to spot any difference between the 2 German dub soundtracks (tracks 1 and 3). In the set-up menu, it only lists German and English, which select tracks 1 and 2 respectively. Track 3 may well be indentical to track 1, and was perhaps included by mistake.

There is also an earlier release from Capelight, released in 2016, a "2 Disc Limited Collector's Edition", with a Blu-ray + DVD. The Blu-ray disc in this set is likely the same as that in the 2017 release:

You have listed the German Blu-ray(s) as having two trailers (German Trailer and English Trailer). It is not like that in the menu, at least not for the 2017 single disc release I have. There is only one trailer in the menu, but which language is played (English or German) is determined by the choice of language in the language set-up menu, the same menu as used for selecting the language for the main movie. It cannot be changed during playback of the trailer - it has to be selected beforehand. I hope that makes sense!

It is just simpler to label it as "English" and "German" separately like that.

Simpler, yes, but less informative. People might not be able to work out how to access the two different language soundtracks of the trailer, as there are no instructions in the menu pages. I only knew because someone else had explained it on another website.
