I found this video. Watch from 22:00. It is the French news from the 25th november 1991.
I'm quite sure the bits come from the concert of Paris 86. What do you think about it?

Amazing find ! Indeed it is more pro footage from Paris 86 - last year the person who shared Poitiers 79 , also shared a different TV news item from 86 with Paris 86, but this 1991 news features parts that I have not seen yet... they might have filmed the whole concert with one camera from the back, and used various parts to make it look multi-cam. Much like the Channel 4 team in Budapest.
FRANCE 3 archives should be asked and searched for this item , in case our world famous archivist team doesnt know what to do now with this information.
The other news item from FR3 featured One Vision and the same video effects...

Defiantly from Paris, looks like it was shot from the centre of the arena by one camera, over a considerable portion of the concert, at the very least.
Must be locally owned by French T.V, doubt Queen were handing out footage the day after Fred died, although the audio does sounds like soundboard. If it was camera audio the crowd noise would drown Fred out from the distance the camera was from the stage?
Great find, thanks.
I'm seriously thinking of breaking into the Queen archive....Maybe during Christmas.....
here is the other Paris 86 report (Actually its a Frejus pre-show news with Paris live footage) , video remastered by me and in mpeg2 format

great find!!
considering how they have footage from many songs and not just the first two or three (which is regular policy) - this is no doubt an indication that they filmed alot of the concert (unless they only shot snippets of various songs, which would be weird...). whether this footage has survived or not is of course another story. someone from QP needs to contact this tv station asap

By the way, I tried to find other footage by typing dates around the Queen French shows, no luck, nothing came. If someone manages to find other stuff...

No, one of us needs to contact them. If QP get the footage, it'll never see the light of day.
Great work, little foetus !

I've just sent them a message. We will see if they answer. Please don't drown them under mails. I must say that the probability of getting something from them is very thin. It is the group which manage the national tv channels. FR3 does not exist anymore and is France 3 now.

Thanks for the link to the remastered clip Miklos.

and here is other one, a Brian report from 1993 , with more 86 stuff - includes a few seconds of the Brian solo with the proper sound, not as a "pseudo multicam" for Under Pressure. (remastered video - the sound is only on left channel , right channel is the original archive code.).
TV stations will rarely speak to individuals - only media enterprises working on valid projects are normally serviced for high prices, and in that case you have to persuade FR3 not only to find the broadcast footage, but the master tape itself in the TV archives... only GB has proper permission for research - unfortunately i dont think he ever did anything similar.

Is it possible to get a copy of the 11-25-91 report from the website? There must be some kind of software. I know there's Fraps, but I don't think that can capture audio, can it.. ?

Here is a rough rip Bob.

Awesome, Marknow.. thanks a lot !
What software did you use? Or was it some kind of online tool ?
The shot of Brian at 1:05 is definitely from Tear It Up. So if the guitar solo was filmed, we can be pretty sure that the first half of the show was filmed, at least.
Now can someone please repost Miklos' links? Those can only be downloaded so many times, and I missed the boat.
