Holiday Inn 1941 - Colorized version in SD when it plays back B&W and HD elsewhere

[SpaceBlackKnight]

So yesterday I nabbed the Uni BD of Holiday Inn for a buck at Dollar Tree, and while expecting the worst with the UV code not working anymore, it redeemed with the Movies Anywhere option so I thought it was a $1 well spent.

I checked the movie on linked providers (Itunes, Vudu, Amazon, MS Store, Fandango Now, and Google/YT), and they all show and play the B&W version in HD and OAR. However, while it's very strange MA has the colorized version (which is also on the BD), it's even weirder it's in SD when I own it HD everywhere else and plays back as so even on the BD. Even with toggling it back and forth and playing it on different devices with the same app, it still remains SD on MA.

Anyone else with this issue for Holiday Inn on MA?

Could be that MA was provided with an incorrect/different master vs other providers - what does your MA history show?

Just checked my MA account and I show I own HD (assumed the B/W version but it does indeed play the colorized version).

Srry for the late reply, my MA history shows "You own HD". It sounds like Universal gave MA the wrong master. No big deal, but it's curious as to how and why Universal made that mistake.
