Nothing new, why don't they release blu-rays of hammersmith 75/79 houston 77, Argentina 81, Japan 85, Knebworth 86.
That would be superb news to all of us.
And what happened to the Rainbow DvD, Does anybody know??

If only you could be as consistently accurate and on-topic elsewhere all the time :-)

You're right.

Maybe they could manage The Game for the 40th anniversary?

But before that, we're long overdue for a re-release of Wembley '86 on blu-ray...

somewhat off topic; but the people who constantly talk about how wembley will be released on blu ray before (instert whatever Queen related product), are they not aware that wembley, in terms of picture quality, cannot benefit from a HD transfer? or is that very fact a part of the joke/moan ?
· Member since
If you put Wembley on 2 identical TV's being supplied by 2 identical Blu Ray players, but one had the DVD and one had the Blu Ray.. would you be able to tell which one was the Blu Ray or not, picture wise?

Well I don't suppose you would have seen the "Days Of Our Lives" documentary in full high definition then, would you?
Seriously, even with the fact the archival footage used for the most is originally shot on standard definition video, it looks FANTASTIC in upconverted HD compared to standard DVD!

Not that I'm advocating a Wembley '86 re-release anytime soon (maybe they should wait until the 30th or 40th anniversary for that!), but in general I believe any concert shot on video would do fine on BD in that as far as encoding and specs go, BD allows up to 40Mbit/s for video encoding as opposed to DVD's 8Mbit/s, and there is the more significant advantage of having lossless surround sound audio (DVD's limited to either lossless 2.0 PCM or 5.1 DTS topping out at 1.5Mbit/s)

Also, for the North American/NTSC markets, the BD resolution allows us to watch PAL-sourced videos without losing about 16% of the picture quality in the process (as is typical with PAL > NTSC conversions for SD formats), albeit with the frame rate still changed from 25fps to 29.97fps of course.

Theoretically yes you could. As I explained in my last post, Blu-ray video encoding allows up to 40Mbit/s and DVD is limited to 8Mbit/s, so even a well encoded DVD likely would still show macroblocking especially in fast shots whereas Blu-ray should not owing to the massive overhead the encoding bitrate gives for SD sourced video.
