It's definitely the same language.

just out of curiousity: If they are the same, why are they putting them both on the same DVD?

Or are they basically the same, but they are minor differences such as with a dialect?

From what I understand they're grammatically the same and also the same for the vast majority of words. But just like English and American English there's some vocabulary differences:

lorry vs. truck
flat vs. apartment
lift vs. elevetor
etc.

There MAY be spelling differences too, i.e. colour vs. color... but that's just a guess on my part.

Add to that some different slangs terms and one can understand why Swedes would want Swedish Swedish and Finns would want Finnish Swedish.
