Thank's for this but is there any chance to download it? Seeders where are you?
Thanx a million for the kudos, folks. I'm glad that most of you like the results of Snivlle's tinkering in his 'Dino Den'.
Ummm . . . just so the nay-sayers know; I didn't touch the color of my original source. Take a look at the 'Before & After' samples. If you have better quality source, feel free to contact me.
As regards the audio quality; I thought that I'd assessed it accurately and objectively. If you don't like the 'pseudo' Dolby 5.1 audio track, then listen to the secondary, dual mono track. Some folks like the 'pretend' 5.1 audio (like many bootlegs are released with now-a-days) It doesn't sound as good as the stereo track, unless you're listening to it on a 5.1 system. I carefully explained what the process was - I thought that I'd explained my steps fairly well. I never professed that it was true 5.1 nor that it was a commercial grade of quality.
Yes, in spots, there are small amounts of metallic ringing (audio processing artifacts) from the noise reduction processing. However, it's only in a few spots where the original sound track was the most distressed. The truth is, if your ears are sensitive enough to distinguish between 448 kbps Dolby AC3 and 16 bit wav sound, you must be earning a very large salary. Your name is probably Mutt (as in Mutt Lange)
If you can make a 2nd gen VHS transfer look better, then I invite you to spend the dozens of hours and produce the results. I will gladly trade for an improved upgrade. As compared to many of the low-grade, multi-gen, pieces of low-grade footage that gets torrented from this era, I figure this one is a solid "8.75/10".
Funny though, many more appreciative comments than negative. I believe that I'll keep a 'Gene Simmons' type of mentality about it. A couple thousand happy downloaders, from various sites, can't all be wrong.
By the by, all mpeg material is lossy. With the right approach, using the right tools, mpeg artifacting can actually be reduced. A resulting 'lossy' re-encode can actually be made to look much better than its source. 'Earl's Evening Races' is a case in point.
Hooah!

Thanks for seeding. I´m only missing Disc 2 now. :-)
One funny thing that I´ve discovered...
In frank´s website (QueenHouse) you can download a FLAC version of a 1st Generation tape (Keep Dancin´). In that version, in the Brighton Rock solo and the Prophet´s Song Vocal Improv, you can hear the original "sound", one echo and then another echo (so three sounds made out of one).
In this version, I can only hear two! How can that happen? The last echo doesn´t seem to be manually edited out of the DVD, so is this from a differente source? Weird...

Exactly... good observation. For some strange reason, there are two different audio sources of this show, and it's only noticeable in a few places: the tape hiccup at the beginning of White Queen, and wherever we hear Brian's delay (especially in Doing All Right).
