The German site Cinefacts is reporting the first ‘Profile 1.1′ title release today. The title is "Neues vom Wixxer" which apparently does not translate well into English.
The title is being released by
Universum Films and according to the article the commentary can be played is audio only on players that do not support the secondary stream video.
No related posts.
Not sure if there are any Neues vom Wixxer fans in the states that don’t own Blu-ray, but the title is scheduled to be released on HD DVD, presumably with PiP as well.
