Default The Fugitive - Silent Re-repressing with VC-1 instead of MPEG-2?

I just purchased a copy of The Fugitive on Blu-ray for $15 the other day when it was on sale. I know the PQ & AQ aren't all that great...as I had rented it once before. However, what truly surprised me is that when I stuck this disc in my PS3, and played it back the film is now encoded in VC-1. I remember being truly disappointed with the original MPEG-2 HD-DVD & Blu-ray transfers (I rented both to compare them back in the day.) But this transfer, though not all that great, seemed to be a little different. My PS3 meter reads that the film is an VC-1 encode...and Blu-ray.com and High Def Digest all say it is MPEG-2. Was this a silent fix...kind of like the Superman Returns re-release w/true-hd & PCM?
