After taking a look at it for years, this time was the right time. The time I finally knew what to do with it to make it look better. So there, experience helps. Anyway, this video is awfully inconsistent. Brightness changes, colour tint changes. Sometimes changing on shot by shot (angle change) basis. Required lots of manual colour correction, roughly tweaked for the whole concert. Basically what I did with Montreal but more crude and much less thorough so more than some shots probably slipped through because it would have taken ages otherwise. * Bright halo outline removed * More depth and detail brought out * Some colour correction * Overall clean up pass * Added DJ Greg's audio remaster so big thanks goes out to him! Also thanks to Jordan and Simon for being helpful on this project and others. Special thanks to DJ Greg, hopefully he won't mind me using his audio.

Not sure what caused it, didn't notice it at first since I usually don't watch my videos right away, besides I had no time for that. Anyway, I fixed it. Here's an updated link - link --- Enjoy! Gabriel F.V. = Prometheus Freddie Mercury, make your own bloody videos. Learn and make yourself better. Better at making videos better on your own not perfecting the art of re-uploading which you're expert at by now. |
cmi 14.09.2017 16:20 |
Wow! One minute earlier I checked for it to arrive... And now here it is. Thanks a lot! It'll be a pleasure to watch this great concert again in upgraded form. |
Barry Durex 14.09.2017 16:22 |
Thanks, but mega is a lost cause. Can anyone torrent? |
Chief Mouse 14.09.2017 16:26 |
I can't seed. Sorry. Also, you guys can easily upgrade for one month (without being forced to continue paying afterwards) for 5 eur. Download is basically unlimited, unless you somehow manage to download over 1 TB a month. |
Barry Durex 14.09.2017 16:33 |
Not paying mega anything. |
Chief Mouse 14.09.2017 16:39 |
Well. Your call. My 4G router won't forward ports so I can't seed. Mega is by far the best service I can upload this to without splitting it in parts or having link expire in 7 days. |

Okay, let us try this. I'm pretty sure I couldn't get it to work in past. Haven't tested for ages though. |

I already had seen some samples so i knew it would be amazing. Once again THE CHIEF has delivered. This is the best version so far and since we won't get Houston we can enjoy this. Thanks again mate for another incredible achievement. |
MAYniac91 14.09.2017 18:55 |
Thanks... wait for this a very long time. Does this have the new audio mix by DJ Greg. That would be an amazing piece of data!!!! |
MAYniac91 14.09.2017 18:56 |
Oh... see now that the new audio is added. Fantastic!!!! |
MAYniac91 14.09.2017 18:58 |
I'd create a BluRay Version out of this, with the new audioline. Post this in a few days here if that's okay for you Chief?! |

Chief Mouse 14.09.2017 19:07 |
Sure, but I wouldn't see a point. It already has the best audio. So it would be essentially just a generation higher re-render. Not sure but I think blu ray players should be able to play this file? Either way, do as you please, these are just my two cents. |
onedunpark 14.09.2017 19:08 |

pittrek 14.09.2017 20:51 |
Thanks a lot for the torrent. To be honest I am way too paranoid to buy a premium account on mega - I had premium accounts on many different servers and all of them were later closed by the FBI. |
Unniendo 14.09.2017 21:23 |
Wow! I'm pretty excited to see this! It's fantastic! I waited impatiently and here it is! Thanks a million for your work! I would not be surprised if the next remastered edition will be Earls Court from this source. link |

OK I downloaded the file from the torrent, and it stops during We Will Rock You - the intro. Does anybody have the same problem with it as I do? |

Chief Mouse 15.09.2017 12:07 |
Hmm. Maybe to do with the fact that the audio is flac? I'll try to see what's up when I get home. |
brians wig 15.09.2017 12:30 |
Thanks for this Chief. :) |
pittrek 15.09.2017 12:33 |
I tried to re-mux it. The video stops during Brian's solo in WWRY and then jumps to the stage lights going up. Which means that even for mkvextract the few seconds of the video stream were not decodable |
Chief Mouse 15.09.2017 12:42 |
Seems like a fixed version is in order. Will see if that can be done today. |
Victorvil 15.09.2017 13:05 |
Chief, you always deliver. This should've been in some box set... |
jerome.wuzz 15.09.2017 14:24 |
Agreed, this is the kind of concert QP should deliver. This is the best version of this concert I've ever watched, thanks a lot! |
Barry Durex 15.09.2017 15:00 |
You might want to delete the existing link until you fix it. |
Chief Mouse 15.09.2017 16:30 |
Wrong torrent file, don't download. Sorry for inconvenience. The file is not fixed just yet as I found another error! Well, that's what happens when you use frameserving via two programs at the same time during a span of 48 hours which includes PC in sleeping mode. I'll sort this asap. |

as long as QP won't release this concert, if they will do, this is the best we can have... so thanks a lot! |
tsskiller 16.09.2017 06:50 |
Thanks Chief for making the definitive version outside of a commercial release. It definitely makes up for the fiasco in that other thread for sure. |

rhapsody8 16.09.2017 09:01 |
Thank you very much for the great job as always... If Chief Mouse will continue making excellent video uprades (like before he did countless times), we can have something. Otherwise, it looks like we can't get something worthy from QP imho. So bad... Thanks again for the keep my Queen interest live. |

Great stuff. There's absolutely no reason for this not to released. I guess they can't remix the 'problem' bits - Roger a touch loud, Freddie a touch quiet. Who gives a fuck! Brian has nightmare with his guitar in parts, but so what? Call it QUEEN - HOUSTON WE HAVE A TUNING PROBLEM and you instantly have the punters on side and no one will judge. |

Unniendo. Extract the Flac with MkvExtract tool and convert it to ac3. Then mux it to video with MKVToolNix GUI. That's it. Why do you want to do it though? Reduce file size? |
Unniendo 16.09.2017 19:41 |
Thanks for advice, Chief. I just wanted to watch mkv file on TV screen through usb, but flac codec does not supported. That's the reason. |

dysan 17.09.2017 08:42 |
Ah so there was a gliche early on? I thought my player was being a dick. Not convinced by the long held idea that the guitar solo contains Hammer To Fall etc. He's just jamming around. |
Chief Mouse 17.09.2017 08:46 |
Check the last torrent posted by TCC on page 3. Or the mega link in OP. This is the fixed file without playback issues. |

Chief Mouse 17.09.2017 12:38 |
I believe this is the best of both worlds because audio is not my field. He did great job on that one. I recall he also did a video. Anyway, I took the liberty to use his audio and combined it with my best effort as far as image. At the end depends on what you prefer. You can compare all versions and find out. |

Chief Mouse 17.09.2017 15:36 |
Original PAL DVD shared by YourValentine in 2007. I believe most if not all other versions have been made from that one, which is essentially the best source. Certainly the closest rip from the original VHS as we'll get according to Pittrek who's pretty hands on as far as sources. |

Technical question: how can I recreate the dvd-video without reducing the video/audio quality? I ask you because I have no reason to keep a MKV file sourced from a dvd that I can't play on my DVD player. Thanks in advance Luca |
cmi 16.10.2017 13:06 |
Luca, Source is DVD MPEG-2 stream, but it was encoded in different more modern video format after restoration. You can't author a DVD-V from this MKV because you need MPEG-2 format video stream to do it. |
bootLuca 16.10.2017 15:33 |
I don't like your answer! ;-) I will try to re-encode in a dvd double layer, I think I will have a lesser quality loss. What is the best way to re-encode mkv files to dvd? Thx |
MAYniac91 23.10.2017 10:19 |
My BluRay is in progress... no quality loss with some nice titles, menue and specials added. Wait to add the documentary out of the forthcoming box set and than it goes online. Of course only via pm, because the dosco is official. |
