Queen Poliedro de Caracas, Caracas, Venezuela September 27 1981 Tracklist 01. Intro 02. We Will Rock You (fast) 03. Let Me Entertain You 04. Play The Game 05. Somebody To Love MEDLEY 1 : 06. Killer Queen 07. I'm In Love With My Car 08. Get Down Make Love 09. Need Your Loving Tonight 10. Save Me MEDLEY 2 : 11. Now I'm Here 12. Dragon Attack 13. Now I'm Here (reprise) 14. Love Of My Life MEDLEY 3 : 15. Keep Yourself Alive 16. Drum solo 17. Guitar solo 18. Flash 19. The Hero 20. Crazy Little Thing Called Love 21. Bohemian Rhapsody 22. Tie Your Mother Down 23. Another One Bites The Dust 24. Sheer Heart Attack 25. We Will Rock You 26. We Are The Champions 27. God Save The Queen A very interesting show. The band seems to be enjoying it but Freddie seems to be pissed at the audience. They improvise a bit of Under Pressure during Now I'm Here and something what sounds like Back Chat during the intro to Keep Yourself Alive. Brian breaks a string during the last seconds of Killer Queen and it takes him a bit till he's able to continue normally. He also forgot to play his solo during Bohemian Rhapsody, and after he remembered he is supposed to be playing, he plays something very, very different (but also very interesting). There are several versions of this concert available. The most famous and probably most spread version is from Digital Dreams (hopefully I remember the name correctly), this version has DTS sound, but it looks and sounds pretty bad (sorry). It's too dark to see anything, has very small bitrate and a huge amount of solarization. The sound is far from perfect too, it sounds like it went through some hiss or noise reduction. Fortunately other copies have surfaced over the years. Two VHS tapes were "leaked" by Ghostwithasmile, one of them was sent to me, I transferred it and shared it on Queenzone a few years back. This new copy looks and sounds even better. I received it as one lossless avi file, I cleaned up most of the video noise in NeatVideo and authored it to DVD. The image is still not perfect, and it has MANY problems in the dark parts, but it's the best I have seen so far. If somebody has a better copy please feel free to share it :-) Technical details : Main feature : Length : 01:32:48 Resolution : PAL 720x576 Framerate : 25fps AVG bitrate : 8Mbps Audio : LPCM 2.0 48kHz DVD contains - full concert - soundcheck (1 min) - TV interviews (9 min) - animated menus Please note - this is a DVD9, you will need a dual layer DVD if you want to burn it, or you will need to use some program like DVDShrink to be able to shrink it for a normal single layer DVD. Also, if you decide to distribute this outside Queenzone, distribute the DVD "as is" including this text file. Don't re-encode it, don't put it on youtube and monetize it, don't use it as a basis for a commercial bootleg. And please don't re-encode it, if somebody is interested in a "1 file" version, an mkv version will be shared on request.

Thanks Peter. Nice to see you authored as a DVD9. I can just burn that straight to a bluray disc! If folks who want an mkv and have the software/patience, they could download this, make a disc image out of it with "imgburn" (free), mount the disc image with "Free ISO mount" (again free!) and then open it with "makemkv" (FREE!!) and create some mkv's :) |

This still looks and sounds like crap but it's way better than what has been available until now. Thanks a ton for putting this up, I finally got to experience the whole show for the first time thanks to this. With a bit of lighting and colour correction as well as plenty of EQ in the top range it certainly is much more enjoyable. The sound is just good enough for the energy of the performance to come through. |

Brianswig reported to me something similar, but I can't reproduce it. Could you please try to film it from your TV with your phone or something like that so that I can see what exactly you guys see? |

Does it play ok on your TV? |

Yes. |
| Bob Harley 01.01.2016 09:46 |
Thanks for this. What happened to the the video? Deinterlaced two frames are like one frame, then two frames (one of them is distorted) from the same moment and the third frame. I didn't notice it at the first look. |
| Bob Harley 01.01.2016 09:56 |
Wrong file. You can see this here: |

LCD (LED technically). And no, I didn't use a standalone DVD player but a computer with XBMC connected to the TV. |

I think the problem is this - Pittrek likely cropped and resized (problem lies in resizing) them without deinterlace -> reinterlace process. Thus the judder. So either he should have done the process mentioned or avoid any cropping + resizing. I re-created it by using this method (below). It's basically the same thing, only that the distorted look varies depending on the amount of resizing. View post on imgur.com View post on imgur.com (this one is untouched, only deinterlaced in VLC. This footage appears like the one I "recreated" because, as I mentioned, the amount of resizing affects the look) View post on imgur.com (notice something similar in this screenshot) View post on imgur.comI would suggest everybody (I do it myself) to do this - * Make 25i videos to 50 fps progressive (respectively, 29.97i -> roughly 60p) * Use H.264 compression and MKV container for the particular video * Play them on laptop connected to TV via HDMI cable You won't have to buy a blank DVD and you save a lot of disk space. And on your TV it will look exactly the same as your DVD player converts 25i to 50p anyway. |
| Barry Durex 01.01.2016 13:33 |
That's the sort of mess I'm talking of, thanks for the info. |
| pittrek 01.01.2016 14:54 |
Now thanks for the post CM, now I finally know what kind of problem do people have. It's really interesting that software players can handle this but some standalone players seem to have a problem with it. I apologize to all of you who had any problems, I'll post an mkv version soon |
| Barry Durex 01.01.2016 16:54 |
Thanks pittrek. |
| brians wig 01.01.2016 19:45 |
Normally I'm all against de-interlaced pictures, but in this case, the original is so weird that you can't tell if it's interlaced or not, so a corrected de-interlaced version is fine by me. Peter. Do you have Snow Productions DVD of this concert? If so, May I recommend you take a look and see if you can match his colours. To my eyes, his DVD would be perfect if it weren't for the fact it's all on a single layer disc and you can clearly see the artefacting. It's so bad that actually, I wonder if his source was mpeg2 to start with... |
| pittrek 02.01.2016 06:10 |
Do you mean the version which is usually distributed as Snow version or is there a REAL SnowProd version ? I have the version which has static Freddie pic in front of a moving flag, has DTS sound but it's extremely dark and I'd say it's VCD-sourced |
| Barry Durex 02.01.2016 08:50 |

I am being genuine because unlike you pittrek seems like a legitimately good person. I have no reason to not want him to have a new job. I admit I'm not the most skilled person at talking to people I barely know but what I have seen of pittrek in his posts, I have no reason not to be nice to him. Genuinely nice. At this point you're blatantly making things about you. All I was doing was asking a simple question and you felt the need to come in and make unnecessary aggression like you always do. Please never reply to any of my messages or mention me ever again on this site, whether directly or indirectly. I am making this formal request and if you do not live up to it then it will be considered legitimate bullying. Unfortunately this website has no way of blocking people so I am stuck having to see you around. I will no longer come after you if you don't come after me. If you agree to this I will also change my signature again. |

The video originates from QTV? |
| Bob Harley 10.07.2016 12:11 |
I feel like I went through whole internet 2 times and every torrent for Caracas '81 is dead. Could anybody share any version which does not come from Snow Productions? |
| . 10.07.2016 13:08 |
That would just be another QTV transfer of some sort then. Snow's versions are all from QTV transfers one way or another. I'm sure QTV is also the source for all of the audio versions shared so far (some of them copies of copies, hence the introduction of crackles etc) Some of those copies are also ''tweaked'' and prodded about a bit, or converted to more lossy formats. A direct clean ''lossless'' recording from the QTV broadcast is about as good as it gets regarding a ''master'' copy at this point in time. |
| Bob Harley 11.07.2016 04:15 |
link - This audio probably comes from the same source like version above. At this webpage - link - there's interesting screenshot - link. Looks slighty better, than some others. |
| . 11.07.2016 05:04 |
Yes, sounds like a QTV version to me, EQ'd a bit. |
| . 20.07.2016 07:53 |
It might be of interest to some of you as regards Pittrek's 2015 DVD share and stand alone players with a TV. If you de-mux, de-interlace and then re-create a DVD it cures the playback issue. |
| Bob Harley 20.07.2016 09:35 |
Raw version would be awesome. |
| . 20.07.2016 11:41 |
^ You need to try and get hold of a copy somebody recorded at the convention from a chalet that had good reception on the day. I reckon it will still look like a bit shite though, and probably no better than Pittrek's 2015 DVD share as regards video quality. |
| Barry Durex 29.07.2016 10:24 |
It was shown at conventions a few times I think. |

Could we get at least original file (before processing)? Or whatever which is properly interlaced? It would be the best available version. |
