If your so interested in the bitrating of the DVD download a small percentage of the torrent and do a sample yourself. You seem to know how to do this yes?
The track list is link look under Caracas 1981.
If you would like to know the date of the concert look at the FIRST image shack link in my post.
Its a shame that some people on this site cant do a basic bit of research for themseves.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,
but teach a man how to fish and you feed him for life.
Know what i mean m8?

18.06.2006 17:03		 Thanks a lot Marknow,
for sharing this, and giving everybody the opportunity, to check out the quality of this Caracas81 for themselves.
928 is well known for asking a lot, and not giving anything in return, at least I have´nt seen anything yet here.
Wonder how Brians broken Red Special string sounds in DTS, (sorry, just a joke).
I have a VHS tape from this Caracas gig since many years, shared it here, and I am so curious about the DTS quality, never thought this is technically possible.
Now finally this is a new source!!!
Thank you very much.
crevecon
18.06.2006 18:26		 Thank you so much for this gig and above all the quality that it seems to have, I have one which was also shared here some time ago. Don´t you worry about 928 he is a person who disqualifies many gigs,since his standars of quality are too high for this site. Thanks again for this.

No, his standards of quality are perfectly acceptable. He is someone who simply wants the best quality recordings to be out there, and there's nothing at all wrong with that. I wish more people here would agree. But unfortunately, he sometimes isn't too tactful when expressing his views.

That probably is true. And I respect your opinion about it, but he simply sounds like attacking those who share low quality gigs or any sort of recordings.

I never feel ashamed of recognizing when I make mistakes 928 and I think this is a time for an apology. What I do is just give my opinion about what I have seen during the time I have been in this forum. When it comes to quality, I also care very much of the files, BUT I do not sound rude when I feel like knowing about it. Bye

I have to agree with you on this.
People, lets calm down a little! As you know, it is comon sense that only a bad (kind of too red colour on screen) recording is avaiable from this concert.
And, not wanting to offend anyone, the south America recordings that are shared are among the worst in queen community!
For me, not having or even heard about a great recording of Rock In Rio 85 says all. I mean almost 300.000.000 people watching and what we get is a Good recording?- Very poor in my opinion.
Now, if this is a great recording that´s been shared, then what 928 is asking makes all sense, because we don´t wan´t to download the same file every time!
The screen shots look very good indeed, so i thank the original poster. Let´s keep the best quality as a goal. We will all benefit from it, because if we start now, then in a few years only the best recordings will circulate (who whants the other ones?)
Take care

frank39
20.06.2006 15:35		 Can´t hear it any longer:
You will never get hundreds of thousands of Queen fans under just one(lossless-only)hat.
Do your personal trades and don´t always complain, when something new comes up, before you havn´t even seen it yet.
You should be happy, that someone shares this stuff here.
And btw:
the sound makes the music, a little bit more politeness could be helpful.
TheGame
20.06.2006 20:50		 I haven't downloaded this ( but will do), and i really appreciate the sharing Marknow does. A true sharer i will say, big thanks to him!!
I do also agree with 928. He's not complaining, just some more info would be good. I can't see why that should be any problem. If you don't know the generation or the answer to the question, just say so.
crevecon
20.06.2006 23:16		 LOL I´ve just finished downloading a part, only the menu, but just seeing this makes me feel so happy, I´d love to watch it soon. Thanks again Marknow

22.06.2006 00:39		 I also want to stay for a very long time sharing this gem, thank you very much again marknow, you are being very generous in sharing this!
928
22.06.2006 02:41		 Ok i have looked at VOB1.Visually and with the right programmes.
Opinion & fact......
Its a VCD conversion that was encoded using TmpgEnc version 2.520.54.163.<--how do i know this...because G-Spot Codec info tool told me
(you can give a man a fish & all that.....lol)
Its Very blocky in places.You can also make out the squelch in the audio so it has had at least 2 encoding compression passes.
It is NOT DTS audio..just plain Mp2
Its
NTSC video 720x480(max 10080 Variable Birate)
Interlaced (Bottom Field First)
4.3 fullscreen
Mp2 audio @ 48.000 and 256k Constant Birate??
Wierd that the video is VBR and the audio is CBR
BUT Bottom line..Its not DVD,its an encoded VCD onto a DVD & should not be traded or passed on as a DVD.
This is not an insult on Mark or his sharing as he probably didn't know that he was being ripped off in his trade.....but now he does!!
BTW Mark...how do you make it PAL at 30fps??
NTSC=29.97
PAL=25
I take it you didnt get a fishing rod then...lol
Penis - Vagina
22.06.2006 03:48		 Maybe one of those passes included some sort of enhancement because I'm told this looks better colour-wise than the VCD. It's also a plus to have chapter breaks..
As for the DTS, I was surprised anyone got excited over that.. even if it had a DTS track it would be faked.. the same mono original put into every channel ;)
928
22.06.2006 05:33		 Hmm!TV set can't do that then?
Either way its a VCD encoded file.Not a VHS transfer,a rip or anything higher.
You cant get back what was lossed in encoding to a VCD 1st.That birate would of been 1150
Making it 10080 to put on a DVD will not bring it back
Its a VCD encoded to DVD whether you like the colour or not.Its not a DVD
andy1962
22.06.2006 07:34		 87.9% having a orgasm,don't stop me now lol

22.06.2006 09:01		 Thanks for the info 928, such info is very useful!!
Do you have any other editions of this dvd, masterport perhaps?

22.06.2006 12:21		 Trading ,for a 5th time for this show, from a guy in Brazil to see if i can get a better version The Game.
Do you have Masterports version?
Queen is the hardest band to find decent quality ...too many people know how to put VCD onto DVD,but nowt else ...lol
Will let you know how it turns out m8,unless you are saying you have Masterports of course & are inviting a trade ;)
YourValentine
22.06.2006 12:25		 @ 928
please show me screenshot of the Gspot info you get. I have the same DVD and I have Gspot but I do not get such detailed info. I also do not SEE that this DVD is encoded from a VCD and I have seen loads of "upfakes" but this one does not look like one.
"Wierd that the video is VBR and the audio is CBR"
Weird? Why would that be weird? Audio is ALWAYS CBR, it has to be or otherwise no player would play the DVD.
Marknow
22.06.2006 12:33		 My god the amount of hassle involved in uploading a dvd these days. You do something with good and honest intentions to try and help out the common fan and all you get in return is a load of smart allack assholes. One mother fucker had the cheek to give out because i stopped seeding for an hour to edit the post and check my mail.
My upload is 32k for fuck sake and there are 500 leeches.
Its not even an issue with me that hardly anyone could be bothered to say thanks, you get that on every forum on the net. You guys really dont know how much your bitting off the hand that feeds you. Not to many people uploading decent audio or video these days, do you guys ever wonder why?
Hope all you cunts enjoy this its the last upload im doing here. Im just gonna leech off this place from now on.
I did not trade for this dvd i bought it on ebay and trusted the information i was given.
Btw thanks for the info 928 seems you do know more than i do. What sofware did you use to get the info?
YourValentine
22.06.2006 12:35		 I did not see your latests post, 928
I do have the masterport version, it's pretty easy to get - and it's not better than the DVD marknow is sharing here. I should compare the two - I think the sound of the masterport release is probably a bit better because they did not play with the "dts" but the picture definitely not. This shared DVD has the best picture.
@ Mark, don't get frustrated: people will thank you once they have downloaded and see how cool this DVD in fact is. I bought it from the same seller and it's very enjoyable. 928 is just a show off who has never shared anything and impresses some people who don't dare to have their own opinion from fear they might be regarded as "lesser collectors" - really childish.

You are such a critic! Say thanks at least, din´t be a dumb, proud guy. Or if you had something better, you could share it.

22.06.2006 13:18		 This looks fantastic thanks for uploading it
928
22.06.2006 14:42		 Sorry Crevon.....
thx Mark for sharing,but i will not be taking this one as it is just a VCD that has been bloated to a DVD.
YV,you must still be using the old version of G-Spot
But heres the screenie full of the facts to show you all that what i said was indeed factual.
link
As you can see,a tag was left from TmpgEnc 2.52 showing that it was used to encode it.With that programme,it had to be something else first off & you do not encode a DVD to a DVD do you!?
Its NTSC....not PAL .>Mark.(How do you make 720x480 and 30fps PAL?)
4.3 Full Screen
Interlaced BFF(bottom field first)
BE honest folks...you have Tokyo 79 & Argentina etc.Does this look like it came from the master tape?.....Maybe it did.......once.
Then it was converted & re-converted etc
& YV..show off eh!!!
I myself call it knowledgable.
But it doesnt surprize me that if YOU dont know & someone else does,instead if them being the teacher they are just a show off eh?
Matter of interpretation
andy1962
22.06.2006 14:53		 cool stuff i'm greatful to you for sharing this and cannot wait to watch,PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.SOME OF US JUST WANT TO REMEMBER QUEEN LIVE AND THIS PERFECT.I SAW QUEEN LIVE MANY TIMES AND MY MEMORIES OF THE GREATEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD.

Absolutely. I do it all the time. I take set-top box DVD recordings and edit them in TMPGEnc (for example, cleaning up commercial break edits) and output lossless as a new DVD mpeg. It can also be an extra step in DVD Author just to add chapters. Just because video has been processed a few times doesn't mean it started as a lower format. That's a silly assumption.
frank39
22.06.2006 15:28		 My God, Mark.
Will you ever upload a show again , reading these destructive posts, especially from 928?
What does he think he is or where he is, first fishing for completement from Sir GH, then putting down Marks upload.
So now that this kind of Queen fan knows what a crap he finds here, he should really better leave the complete forum.
And once again:
I didn´t see any upload from 928 here at all. Always complaining, demanding, never giving anything. Wonder if he really got some goodies at all.
And if thats so, let people know, otherwise shut up.
YourValentine
22.06.2006 15:34		 Thanks for the screen shot, very interesting, I'll get a new GSpot.
You are WRONG if you think that you can only encode to VCD with TMPGENC 2.5xxx version. TMPG is used for the compression and you can easily compress your AVI to mpg2 for DVD NTSC or PAL with TMPG. I have compressed all my DVDs with TMPG and they come from tapes and not VCDs. The actual encoding is not done with TMPG, anyway. As an expert you should know such a simple fact.
The BFF/TFF and interlace/progressive issue - you have as many opinions as people you discuss the issue with. But there is one simple thing: if you get a jerky picture with TFF, you use BFF and most people do it, it's not even a quality issue. If you prefer a jerky picture because someone told you that you have to set the software to TFF no matter what, be happy with it. Everybody who ever encoded something had this issue at some point - the picture looks good in the PC but on TV it's jerky.
You are also totally wrong about me. I always want to learn and if I had seen on your screenshot that you are right about the VCD-to-DVD upfake I would surely admit it. But you are wrong. With your half knowledge you cause trouble and anger here on the bord among people who mostly share and don't do any encoding themselves.
I am not surprised you did not comment on your ridiculous "question" why the audio is constant bitrate.
The guy who sold me the Caracas DVD that is shared here is an honest person, he has an excellent reputation among video collectors and his work is respected. You, on the other hand, have never shown us anything to prove your alleged expertise, all you do is insult people who share their hobby.
928
22.06.2006 15:35		 Wrong am i YV.
Never said anything about using TFF or BFF just said what the specs of the file was
CBR for audio...yes it can be used,never said otherwise WHEN ITS A CBR video.A mix of both shows more that its more of a bodge job on encoding.Sort of thing you would do lololol.
I garuntee you that this file started out life as a VCD......end of!!
Yes my 1/2 knowledge knows that more than your no knowledge will ever
& maybe the honest person in the trade was just passing on the BullS that he was told......and didnt know any better either..??
BTW .jerky picture?You dont change the field,you de-interlace it keeping the field the same as the field was what it was originall y(should no-one on QZ of got to it 1st).The jerkiness comes from too much interlacing
YourValentine
22.06.2006 15:35		 Thanks, Jeff, for pointing out the obvious:) This is beecoming so bizzarre.

22.06.2006 16:03		 WHY MOAN ABOUT WHAT SOMEBODY IS TRYING TO DO?? ME I DON'T CARE I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS FOOTAGE BEFORE SO COMPLETE AND I WOULD ALSO THINK ALOT MORE PEOPLE HAVE NOT,IF YOU HAVE BETTER ?????WHY NOT PUT IT UP FOR OTHER FANS TO VIEW OR JUST SHUT THE F**K UP YOUR WORSE THAN MY WIFE FOR MOANING

You know - he created the DVD. He encoded that tape and made the menu. He knows what he is doing and I trust his word because I have seen his work. You know nothing, end of story.
928
22.06.2006 16:10		 Hahahahaha.....you would say that.ive seen your work as well so it doesnt surprize me.
Its a pig really isn't it.
Hey Kudos to Mark for sharing...he is not involved really.Hes just upping it.
I am on about the specs of the file...nothing more.

As you said you're new.
Some of us Andy have been in the game a long ,long time so yes quality does count....plus it preseves the quality for future years rather than a week.
We all look for "1st gen" really.....the people that do not know what that means are not fans of quality or indeed anything really
By the way...you may want to turn your Caps Lock off.We are not deaf(it means you are shouting)
Welcome to QZ...careful ;)

I hope that you understand what I write! :)

Happy days for you !!
Sorry my bad english
TheGame
22.06.2006 23:39		 I wont continue this "fight", but asking if the dvd is vcd sourched or not is not bitching!!
I'm not 100% sure what it is ( vcd or not), but since this infact have better picture quality then masterport release, it's really worth having and enjoying. As Ale said: If it was vcd, it must have been a very very good convert.
Andy: I would love to help you with this, but I'm sure there are people on this forum with much better knowledge then me. Hope you can solve the problem and share the stuff.
YourValentine
23.06.2006 03:07		 @ The Game - one more time: this DVD is not VCD sourced.
Look at the screenshot 928 posted and it says DVD all over! 928 claims it must be VCD sourced because a certain software was used (TPMGEnc) which is rubbish. TMPGENc is used to compress avi to DVD (or VCD or SVCD), it does NOT say where the avi comes from!
If you don't believe me why don't you believe your own eyes? Load the DVD into your player (for example powerDVD), stop the playing by hitting "pause" and just LOOK at the still picture using "full screen". If the DVD would be VCD sourced it would consist of "fragments", i.e little boxes to build the picture. You don't need to be Einstein or an experienced encoder to see if a DVD is VCD sourced. This DVD looks smooth, there is not the slightest sign that it's VCD sourced.
If 928 is the expert and top collector he claims to be - why did he not know about this new DVD? Mark knew about it and he never bragged here about his alleged expertise. Why does 928 have difficulties to swap for the Masterport edition if he is such a big shot? The masterport edition is very common, you do not need to go to Brazil to get a copy.
As yet I was always polite about 928 but now I am getting so fed up about this hot air balloon - he only causes trouble with his so called quality conscious criticism. He only annoys the sharers to a point that they regret sharing and never ever shares something himself.

23.06.2006 03:20		 Hi Marknow

Just send some more DVD for us - we are ALL(eksept 928) overexecited and happy for them.

23.06.2006 03:40		 I just finished a watched this new Caracas:
All you people can really look forward to this new version:
-Much better pictures
-Much better sound
-Very nice Menue
-add Interview
-and some more: Soundcheck, picture gallery.
So what is this to complain about? Its definitively the BEST free available copy until now.
I really give a shit on VBR and CBR, TMPEG, CCE...., at least as long as the result is like this. And the result is very good.
928 seems be in the wrong forum:
he surely wanted to visit an encoding forum on doom9.
Unfortunately it happened, that he landed here, and now we all have stand his offensive behaviour.
Do us all a favour 928, shut up and leave, go on colleting your VBRs and CBRs, it seems, you forgot the music itsself after all.
AC
23.06.2006 04:22		 Thank you for sharing this.
This DVD doesn't seem VCD sourced to me.
928 is probably envious because this DVD has better quality than his copy and he doesn't want to admit it :-)

Queenman!!
23.06.2006 05:57		 Hello Marknow: I don't want to sound unpleased, but is the soundcheck on the DVD cut or isn't there more footage available?
This one for all Queenzoners: Is the a copy of this concert in stereo on the market or soundboard. (just audio) Maybe we can replace the mono-audio with stereo quality to make the best version of caracas which saw the light of day.
Thanks.

warhol
23.06.2006 09:05		 thanks to marknow for sharing, but i have to say i am quite disappointed with this disc.
the video does have a lot of evidence of blocking, which might confirm what 928 has said - look around 03:15 to 03:16 when brian is in the foreground and step through the frames on pause. big blocks !
also, the mpeg sound is awful - worse than mp3 - listen how unnatural it is around 05:09 or during verses of "another one bites the dust".
i'm new to queen collecting, and it does seem like there are a lot of low quality dvd's in circulation. it would be really helpful if a long term collector could post a guide or list of the best shows and how to identify them. would anyone be able do that ?
thanks,
warhol

They´re very welcome!!
I think that the Marc Bolan show featuring Roger Taylor, was released as DVD so it can´t be shared here because it´s official!
The other two are great, we´re on a quest to find the best quality of "SSOR" at top of the pops.
Welcome to Quenzone.
We argue like dogs but in the end we love each other...or maybe not : ))
Take care
take care
frank39
23.06.2006 12:41		 all caracas versions sound somehow strange, don´t know why, but thats a fact.
The audience background sound is extremly manipulated ( more than 100.00 people gathering in 1981 ,... it was Pinochet ruling the country that day! ) they didn´t want a screaming young crowd that day under Pinochet.
Listen to the start of Somebody to love, and listen to the crowd....
Brians guitar is far too lound, compared to the other instruments, though I like it.
John´s bass: his loundness goes up and down.
and there´s a lot more.
Still I would say this is better than the version from my VHS tape, which used to be the major source for most copies here around.
I again compared to my VHS just now, and I must say:
Marknow´s version is BETTER.
Thanks again for sharing.
whiteman
23.06.2006 13:00		 Have just watched the DVD and i have gotta say a HUGE thanks to Marknow for sharing this-its GREAT!! Freddie telling the crowd to "Shut up!" coz they wont stop screaming is wonderful.
i cant believe the moaning about vcd or dvd source,this is a piece of classic Queen and its FREE so sit back,relax and prepare to be taken back to a time when Queen WERE the champions!!!

23.06.2006 13:29		 Thank you so much Marknow, this was such a contribution to all of us, the quality is by far one the best I have seen,related of course to free downloaded DVDs. I will stay for a long time, so that I can help others get it faster. Thanks again man!

24.06.2006 19:42		 Hello people
I have been dealing with video for years and years, and trading on various formats. I just have a quick comment on this dvd...
IT IS NOT VCD SOURCED.
You know how to tell? Just watch it! If this was VCD sourced it would not play anywhere NEAR as smooth as this one does, the picture is pretty sharp considering the date of the concert, and blockiness is a normal part of having a long concert on a 1 hour disc. The sound is pretty muffled but that doesnt mean it was from a VCD. I personally use TMPGEnc for various reasons and it doesnt just get used for converting a VCD to DVD. It's obvious to anyone with 2 working eyes that this never was a VCD. Big thanks to marknow for uploading.

Haha... that post made my day. I like people who can admit their faults. Happy to have you here. Cheers yourself.
Yet again, nobody is talking about the performance in Caracas. No mention of how fantastic Freddie sounds, and no mention of Brian breaking a string in KQ, messing up the BoRhap guitar solo, or his delay being much too quick for his Brighton Rock solo. It takes him a few seconds to catch onto the fact that his delay is only a half second, compared to 3/4 of a second which he's used to. Big, big difference!
The soundcheck footage is great, and the interviews were a joy to watch. Roger's is brilliant... he just stands there while the interviewer talks to the interpreter. And Brian... he spoke Spanish pretty well. It seems he learned the language just so he could communicate with people in South America throughout the year. That's the kind of guy Brian is.

But it doesnt surprize me that if YOU dont know & someone else does,instead if them being the teacher they are just a show off eh? Matter of interpretation
I think you are wrong that this file could not have been encoded from a DVD, if the concert was recorded in South America, the system would be PAL, 25 FPS, since this DVD is NTSC it was likely converted.
You can rip a PAL DVD to a single VOB file and then encode it to NTSC DVD, or decompress the single VOB file and encode it to NTSC.
I am not saying that this is what happened, I don't know, but it is possible to re-encode a DVD to DVD.
Thanks to Marknow for the upload, but don't blame 928 for asking about the lineage of the DVD. If you tried to upload this file to a site like the Traders Den, they would ask the same questions if not more, and you could not provide the lineage, they would most likely pull the torrent.
If the quality is as good as people say it is, I am downloading it now, there are many who will gladly take it even if it's a VCD, and wait for a 'real" DVD to surface.

Its a VCD conversion that was encoded using TmpgEnc version 2.520.54.163.<--how do i know this...because G-Spot Codec info tool told me
(you can give a man a fish & all that.....lol)
Its Very blocky in places.You can also make out the squelch in the audio so it has had at least 2 encoding compression passes.
It is NOT DTS audio..just plain Mp2
DVD Shrink says it has two audio tracks, MPEG-1 2 channel and DTS 5.1.

But with the new format came some controversy and a lot of confusion, which is becoming increasingly important as DVD is moving into more homes and many new DVD players carry the small DTS logo on the front."
Since DTS was not available in 1981, when this Queen concert took place, this DVD was obviously made much, much later.
And I don't think too many home computer applications have the ability to create a DTS track, so, it seems that this is a professionally done DVD. The menu surely looks professional.
If only bad quality DVDs of this concert are availalbe, I don't see how a better quality VCD can surface. It is quite possible that this was made from a master tape and was converted to NTSC.

13.03.2007 12:33		 A few weeks ago someone came up with the brilliant idea "Adopt-a-torrent". In the spirit of that (and due to the fact that I have a brand new 320 GB hard drive, half of which is dedicated to QueenZone and the HUB) I'm adopting this one. In case you missed the first (second, third etc.) time around, here it is again, folks. And it's here to stay!
Enjoy! :)

Go ahead and post it dude, we gotta stop these fucking leeches for once at all. A nice start is posting their IP's so we can block them from our clients so they can't download a single byte.

I was the one with the idea and it´s great to see that people are adopting a torrent. Thanks for do that.
Well, what happened with the leechers is really sad.
I´m seeding 7 Queen related DVD´s for Queenzone, and this is a lot more than the ones i was intended to adopt, but when i was going to erase some of the DVD´s from my hard drive i´ve noticed that i was the only seeder and it makes me sad when people can´t finish the torrents.
Sometimes when someone finishes the torrent and i´m about to finish seeding i realise that the person has closed the window, so i keep seeding until the next one finishes.
No hard feelings towards them. I understand that they took ages to download but at least people could seed one week until every one is satisfied.
Thanks for doing that.
Take care

It's the least I could do for this community. I wish more people would do that. Out of curiousity, which DVD's have you adopted?

19.03.2007 16:35		 P.S. I have a few other DVD's seeding at the moment because I'm trying to raise my Demonoid ratio. Another day or two and I'll stop the demonoid seeds and I'll adopt another QueenZone torrent.

19.03.2007 17:02		 I always try to upload at least twice the amount I download, but mostly it's more.
Before judging leechers who leave after completing the download, let's not forget one is always seeding practically as soon as one is downloading. Perhaps one's download is slow but one's upload is more after all. Could be, couldn't it?
btw I only started downloading "Caracas" a week ago, so I'm very grateful people were still seeding it! (Uploaded it 3x)

I had adopted:
Argentina 81

and other that i´m not shure bacause i´m seeding appart from the two previous.
Hammersmith 79
Philadelphia 2006
St. Paul 1980
Pesaro 2005
Brian May Tour Rio 1992 and VH1 performance
Smitty guift number 2
Now, keep in mind that i can´t seed them all at the same time, but on and off i´m seeding them. I usually seed more those with zero seeders left but this is getting a little heaviaer for me, because i need the extra space on my hard drive.
But since i can´t share new stuff here, this is my retribution to this community.
But i need to drop 3 DVD´s in a short term period.

Sure, you copy it back to your hard drive from the DVD which I hope you've downloaded and keep seeding. Pretty straightforward.

freddie lives 28817
12.04.2007 05:42		 Thanks for uploading this, but I have a question (and I apologise for sounding ungrateful), but whilst it is sourced from a better quality video than the one I've had for years, it's let down by big pixalating squares in certain parts of the picture (roger's flashing lights under the drum kit for example) because of the bitrate used to encode it.
The disc would have been better without the fancy moving menus and definately without the pointless dts surround soundtrack all of which take up disc space. For future reference, creating a DTS surround upmix of a stereo concert (and I'm not even sure this is stereo for goodness sake)is madness as the results are never that good (I've tried a few myself)and it just wastes space that could be used for a higher bitrate for the picture to minimise artefacting. There's nothing worse than a cracking picture that's compromised by a low bitrate.
It's crazy that the 1 minute soundcheck footage is better quality than the concert footage!
What I will say to everybody, is don't take my points as being a reason NOT to download this.
It should be downloaded as it is an improvement on previous versions, and some of that annoying background noise (that causes freddie to shout "get rid of that f**king noise") is not that noticable.
Apologies Marknow if it was the DVD you bought and you didn't actually make it yourself. Obviously you have no control over it if you bought it.

21.03.2008 17:22		 Hello Fellers
I have a question : do you know how to fix the little problem of Caracas 1981 DVD ? It's Burned as "Data DVD".
While watching it on the TV DVD player it reaches some specific time (21 min) and stops for some seconds then load the next part
I checked it on the PC it's doing the same thing on the PC I mean I open the folder of Caracas DVD through VLC player I choose "Play Concert" from the menu, the show starts but after the "VTS_01_1" is finished (approximatly after 21 min) it loads the "VTS_01_2" and when this one is finished too (after a 20 min) it loads "VTS_01_3" and so on
do you know how to fix it ? I want to make it run without this "loadings" I mean I want it to run for the 90 min without any interceptions
Or is the same thing happening to everybody ?
I don't wish to reauthor it I want to keep the menu of it. the menu is awsome !
Thank you very much
foreversilence
22.03.2008 07:47		 any idea why this problem (above) ?
Or any idea how to fix it ?
thanks
pittrek
22.03.2008 08:10		 Why do you call it an error ? It's normal that the VTS is devided to VTS_01_1, VTS_01_2 etc.
Which software did you use for burning it.
It sounds like you used Nero and used the Data DVD mode, which is of course WRONG.
foreversilence
22.03.2008 08:55		 Hey Pittrek
the DVD was sent to me and it was burned as "Data DVD"
I know that "VTS_01_1" or "VTS_01_2" are devided
but with other DVDs (example houston 1977) I don't have that problem I can watch the DVD on my TV DVD player and without any intreceptions while passing from "VTS_01_1" to "VTS_01_2" etc
but with this Caracs DVD it's somekind of pausing for some seconds and loading the next part to continue the show and the parts that it's doing this "pause" is the end of "VTS_01_1" or "VTS_01_2" etc .. cause I chekced it on the PC
do you think it would be fixed if I burn it as "Video-files DVD" ?
Thank Pittrek for your reply
pittrek
22.03.2008 09:01		 It's really hard to answer without having the disc itself in my hands, but yes, it can be the problem. For example my DVD player won't even try to play a disc burned as Data DVD
foreversilence
22.03.2008 09:46		 Hey Pittrek
I was just checking what's in the folder
here's what's in it :

It's the first time I see these ".ipl" files
do you have any idea about this kind of extension ?
Ok I'll give it a try I'll burn it as "Video-file DVD" and I'll let you know the result

The main concert has been split into 4 titles, which is where the pauses occur (not between vob files).
The only way to rid yourself of the annoying pauses is to lose the menu.
I copied the main 1 - 5 (vobs only) to hard disc and then used ifoedit to create new ifo and bup files.
Concert now plays smoothly and retains chapters.
The extras appear at the end as additional chapters.
The two audio tracks obviously remain.
I think I prefer it like this.

Some good discussion in this thread.928 seems to be staying away from this forum though. He seemed to have pissed off quite a few people but also was the cause for quite a few discussions, and as an innocent by-stander, I'm wiser about DVD/video authoring becos of these discussions.

The Real Wizard
07.01.2011 13:55		 Wow, what has happened to Queenzone?  It's being flooded by ungrateful children.  You have no idea about what exists and what doesn't, and this attitude isn't the way to find out.  The sense of entitlement here is through the roof, and it needs to stop.  Why don't we just stop sharing music, and you kids can track down all the new audio and video yourselves?  Maybe that's what it will take..

07.01.2011 15:03		 OK just a small comparision, just to let you know HOW my version looks and sounds like.
The old version (this DVD) : link
My transfer : link
As you can see, my DVD doesn't look really MUCH better, I would call it "slightly better", but I think that my DVD has better sound. What do you people think ?

If you added a new menu and chapters I think even a small upgrade is worth sharing please.

08.01.2011 08:22		 we wait ome more release of pittrek
pittrek
08.01.2011 08:27		 My DVDs actually come from a VHS tape, not from this DVD. They WILL be shared here, just wait. I have a slow upload, so I have to finish uploading what I'm uploading these days, before I can upload something for Queenzone
