Paris '79 & Buenos Aires '81 Vob samples (without logos)

Somebody asked me for these samples as they were adamant all taped versions either had the QTV logo or were cropped.

As I am uploading them to mediafire, I thought I may as well post the links here.

Paris '79:

Is it just me or are there no files on that link? All I get is a sign up screen

I get it too.

myfiles.php is your private directory listing, not a link to the file :-)

Apologies, correct Paris '79 link as below and now in post #1

Buenos Aires link to follow.

Thanks  for the sample Kurgan, looks like the best version I have seen so far.

Buenos Aires '81 (taken from full TV broadcast , again without QTV logo)

Seriously ? Or are you talking about the versions without the QTV logo ?

This looks pretty good. I made a very simple "remaster", I took your video, increased the mid-range saturation a bit, put it through VirtualDubMod's NeatVideo plugin with very basic settings, and this is the result :

What do you think about it ? As I wrote it's a quick (5-minutes long) job, but if you like it I could offer my services :-)

Yeah, Paris minus the logo version.

Peter, I think I already sent you a copy of Buenos Aires and Paris some time back, so feel free if you want to play with them.

The only difference between them and my latest two transfers are that I have increased the audio levels and made some small  edits and fades.

I used a different DVD recorder this time, but that has made hardly any difference, if any at all.

I'm not trying to say either of my versions are better than those already out there, but  even the best Paris QTV version in circulation does have rather annoying audio interference at times

(rather like the audio was not tracked in correctly on the VCR at the time of the transfer) and of course a nice QTV  _  graphic.

Both of my recordings used for the transfer are PAL Betamax and the dvd recorder was set at 1 hour rec mode for Paris and 2 hour for Buenos Aires.

Unfortunately the original VCR used was not HI FI, so the audio is not as good as it could have been.

Is this really the same Buenos Aires ? I remember it looking worse but it's a long time since I've seen it, your sample looks better than what I remember :-) I try to play with it

Your versions are REALLY great, it's a great "alternative" , it's great to have one version with better video, but with an ugly QTV logo, and one video with worse video, but with no logos.

Interesting, thanks for the info

i was thinking that If the dvd recorders has been existing in these "convention days" we could get a lot of gigs in good quality!

Now, in this news conventions, they don´t "transmite more gigs? (i don´t know much about conventions)

Dear Pittrek. Your work is great as always. This is the best picture quality of Argentina'81, I've ever seen. I would like to see "this quality" on a DVD. It deserves a DVD working :) Thanks for effort and of course kurgan100 for the source video...

What do you think about a DVD release?

I'll upload some other logo free vob samples of Sao Paulo, Hyde Park and Caracas.
