Is it too late to fix it?
--------------------------------------------------------
Just so that everyone is aware, neither Sky nor Freesat broadcasts an LPCM soundtrack - it takes up far too much bandwidth.
All video streams are encoded with an AC3 soundtrack - even on the HD channels.

It does not matter if sky broadcast in mp3 or morse code. LPCM would have given a lossless copy of the sky audio stream, instead of this compressed lossy version. People record in Wav for a reason you know.

BTW the green line does not bother you at all? A one second blip on my share was VERY distressing for you, but you seem to have dropped your standards for this share.

Why is that Dave?

I seem to have stirred up bit of ill-feeling here regading the audio on this DVD.

I always try to provide the best quality DVD I can but am no expert. My hope is that people can enjoy the DVD for what it is....a home-produced version of an HD transmission.

@ guesswhotoo

You did the best job possible with the equipment you have, no question of it.

Okay. 
#1. You can't make a lossless recording from a lossy stream and I simply aimed to make people aware of the fact that the broadcast was not lossless in the first place, and nothing more.

#2: If the remainder of your response is aimed at me, firstly I've downloaded neither version and therefore have made no comment on the "blip" nor have I seen this green line.....

Thanks!

Great! Now if some kind soul would be gracious enough to make us a nice DVD cover that would be amazing! :)

Wow... I just caught on to Brian's faux pas. "It's a Hard Life has probably never been performed live".... How embarrassing... Oooops, right?

V. i subscribe this kind request of the friend bigV
;) artists of Queenzone it's your turn!!

BigV,

With reference to Brian's faux pas, he also said on the night when introducing Seas of Rhye that they had not played it since about 1974, although that was cut from the TV broadcast along with the some other comments about it being Midges fault if they mess it up becuase they had not played it for so long.

How come there's no short edit during Hard Life?
Surely the HD and SD Broadcasts were the same?

There was some additional concert footage shown in the 1/2 hour programme (containing rehersal footage / interviews etc) shown on Sky Arts straight after the main broadcast.

Thanks for sharing this.

Nice menu and the green line is not visible on my TV. Good work.

The version of "It´s a hard life" by Tom Chaplin made me cry. One of the greatest queen covers i have heard in my life.

Thank you!
