Star Wars - Episode VII - The Force Awakens Conversion in General

[sparktank]

Well, Antovolk has recently stated that he does edits.
Custom edits between various sources.
This would explain for the discrepancy you experience.

His work is also coverted from 24fps to 23.976 ("NTSC_FILM") frame rates.
No idea how his software really handles this conversion.
All software and methods work differently for this type of conversion.
With Avisynth alone there are multiple versions that each give drastica differences.

The discrepancy is with the PCM track on arthurm's encode, for some odd reason.

On my edits I make sure that the audio slowed down accordingly to match 23.976 and sync it to the official stereo encodes. I convert from 24 to 23.976 by re-interpreting the footage in Adobe Premiere.

Yep, no issues with the audio on yours!
