Nice one Raffy. :) |
| Raffy 25.03.2014 18:52 |
Glad you all like my recent uploads ;) another nice one is coming: original tv broadcast of March 1974 gig at the Rainbow (also this with both audio and visuals restored). |
| Raffy 25.03.2014 19:04 |
In the meantime if anyone of you would like to help me with the research of a good version of this -> link (it's the one with Freddie on the red jacket not the other I've posted in my first upload) it would be really great ;) I know it was posted a long time ago here on queenzone but since I've changed my old pc I've lost lots of old files... |

You have the 1975 Japanese TV broadcast or something else? Or is it just the short Swedish TV re-broadcast of S&D? |

I hope I'll be able to find the footage somewhere |

'The Miracle Express' is slightly horizontally streched, I think. Source is SP's 'Rockumentary', right? 'Innuendo EPK' sounds really nice here. Thanks :) I once heard about Swerdish TV broadcast of 'TME' with quality about HQ that was shared on QueenHub - is there anybody who still have it and can reupload? |

Thanks Raffy, but I do have to ask (and risk sound ungrateful and negative), but why aren't they mpeg2? They were originally broadcast as interlaced pictures and so far as I know mpeg2 is still the only way to keep the interlacing. Also, what exactly is your source material? You're profile says you are in Italy so your TV format is PAL at 25fps, yet these are clearly NTSC frame sized and 30fps. My way of thinking is that you always keep the output format the same as the input so you reduce any conversions artefacts and issues. |

Hi, source for this material is mostly Queenhub shared videos (except for the material I've posted on this dvd -> /queenzone/1378240.html originally taken from my old vhs collection). I've used avidemux to remaster the videos and cubase for the audio, the output file I've chosen was mkv because: - MKV is a container format that supports various codecs, including H.264, VC-1, AC3, DTS, etc. The compatibility of MKV format makes it possible to keep original video or audio compression format (video codec); - MKV is open and free. No one holds patents or licenses and anyone can implement it freely. As a result MKV format is widely supported by media players. |

I agree with brians. Raffy, thanks for all your uploads, they really nice, but why you doesn't keep material in its original size and crop borders? MKV is good container, I agree, but MPG is better for DVD autoring and/or using in another remaster process. |

You're profile says you are in Italy so your TV format is PAL at 25fps, yet these are clearly NTSC frame sized and 30fps. My way of thinking is that you always keep the output format the same as the input so you reduce any conversions artefacts and issues. Well, the MPEG2 codec is outdated these days and the compression is usually noticeable. H.264 works much better with even 3X lower bitrates and you see less compression artifacts than MPEG2 with 8000 bitrate for example. Also, if I may ask, why exactly do you need videos to be interlaced? When you watch them, your player does deinterlacing anyway (unless you prefer watching videos with lines). But the thing is that players do deinterlacing "on the fly" which means it's lower quality deinterlace than it could be because the player is doing it real-time. But when you process a video in an editing software, you can add high quality deinterlace filter and render the video, so afterwards your player can play your new progressive video. There would be a difference in quality of smoothed horizontal interlace lines. (of course none of this would bother someone who's not a video geek :P) I agree, the FPS should be left as original, there's no point in changing it. But as far as I'm aware the Innuendo EPK source is only available in NTSC isn't it? What's it to do with his TV format? In this case it doesn't matter. I live in Europe as well, but if the source is NTSC I will edit it in NTSC. As for Raffy's video. I downloaded the Innuendo EPK and there are still some sort of lines. Raffy, did you not deinterlace it or was it some weird deinterlacer? If you intended on leaving the lines, I'd say you should've used MPEG2 format as Brians Wig mentioned. Also, keeping the output the same codec as the input won't protect the video from artifacts. It is to do with the type of compression you decide to use and bitrate. The compression will always be there if you re-encode a video, no matter what output you choose. But we can affect how noticeable the compression is gonna be. As I already mentioned the best for compression out there yet is H.264, it can provide excellent results with 2000-3000 bitrate. Raffy used it for these videos, which is good if he didn't intend to make them for a DVD. Purpose of these videos is to be watched on a computer. If Raffy decided to make them for a DVD he'd make them MPEG2. My 2 cents. Hope I made some point, it's hard to explain this stuff :-) |

I agree about the DVD authoring though. Why do you mind borders being cropped? |

Thank you Raffy! I'm watching the dailymotion link while waiting for my torrent to finish. I have never seen this video, interesting :) I will keep my torrent window open for a while after I finish downloading. |

^ Grab Antiden's recent upload - it's miles better than what we had before. "antiden wrote: Hi again! Please enjoy the raw transfer from the original VHS titled 'QUEEN - INNUENDO Video Profile'. Two .vob files: link link " |
| brians wig 05.03.2015 15:50 |
Yes. And it's interlaced PAL as well ;-) LOL |
| hobbit in Rhye 05.03.2015 15:58 |
Thanks Chief^^ I'm downloading those 2 antiden files, the filesize scared me at first. Thank you antiden for the raw transfer. The video's quality is indeed great. I'm drowning in this sharing forum :D |
