audio & subtitle tracks not selected on "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" UHD disc

There seems to be an issue with the determination of the correct audio & subtitle tracks, on the "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" UHD disc (Arrow, GBR, 2022).

There are 2 main-movie playlists on the disc:
- 00100.mpls (Theatrical Cut)
- 00101.mpls (Extended Cut)

For the Extended Cut (00101.mpls), I *think* that it's correct (but that should probably be validated). DTS-HD MA 5.1 and 2.0 tracks, 2 DTS commentaries, & PGS subtitles are selected, and the alternate DTS-HD MA 5.1 and 2.0 tracks (presumably for the Theatrical Cut) are deselected (*/hidden). For the Theatrical Cut (00100.mpls), however, all of the audio tracks and the subtitle track are deselected (*/hidden). BDInfo (included below) does not show these as hidden, so I think that it's an issue in DGDemux, rather than some authoring error on the disc. I tried DGDemux v62 & v63, with the same results.

BDInfo for both playlists:

Update: I did confirm that the tracks for the Extended Cut (00101.mpls) identified by DGDemux are correct. The first 2 DTS-HD MA tracks (5.1 & 2.0) are for the extended cut, and the 2 DTS commentary tracks are only supposed to be enabled/played with the Extended Cut.

So, for the Theatrical Cut (00100.mpls), DGDemux has not correctly identified the following tracks as enabled (and instead are marked as "*"/hidden):
- 1102: DTS-HD MA 5.1
- 1102: DTS-HD MA 2.0
- 12a0: PGS subtitles

Does it hurt bad?

That hidden sh-te-te is a pain in the bu-te-te. Whose idea?

Was it the frog?

Rocky uses frogs a lot in his coaching um by reference not with actual frogs. Would you trust your kid to a frog with killer spines?

Heavens no.
