As long as you're using the exact same master and not doing any additional tinkering then the results should be the same.
However, encoding the disc can also produce differences as the amount of data and how compressed it is can effect the end result. | The thing with brightness puzzles me. Why do they need to brighten things? If the original print is dark then brightening it up makes it different to how it looked originally. It's just the same as George Lucas tinkering with Star Wars, but less devastating obviously.
