That's because he didn't want Queen songs on the set (setting aside for a moment 'HFE', since that was released by The Cross first, before anyone gets argumentative here), as odd as it sounds.

I bet the blurring is because the pal videos have been converted to ntsc ..

I can hardly believe that this is the case because it would mean it's intended to be that way. Anyone with half a brain who saw what I saw when I was watching the DVD must have come to the conclusion that it's impossible to release such a product. That is not a minor mistake it ruins the whole DVD. I can only hope the problem is either somewhere else (settings, Player, TV) or only with my DVD, so the problem can be solved. But I never had something like this in the past.

Anyone else watched the DVD so far?

^ Try a different player, the one in your PC perhaps?
That might be the key.

I experience no real problems with the dvd. Sometimes with fast moving images you can see some lines, but that happened only a few times, not Always.
So for me the dvd is okay.

I haven't seen the DVD yet, but if you're talking about the same "effect" which can be seen on every Queen related DVD since 2011, especially on the 25th anniversary Wembley set, then yes, it's a result of a fucked up and completely useless and stupid conversion of PAL to NTSC.

If the DVD should be defective, do you think they will replace it?

What about Blue Rock? Does it have a sound improvement?

Two more (text) errors:
1. In his foreword, final sentence, Rhys talks about a "cole" instead of "collection";
2. In the tracklisting of the Cross-singles, last track (Shove it US), it is stated that the inclusion is a last minute "edition" instead of "addition".

Also on my DVD: Whenever there are some fast movements (waving hands, drumming) then the film stutters or flickers. Especially on the later Videos like "Liar" (on Youtube, there is a "Liar" which is in better quality)...and on the EPKs. They are all "stuttering"

:-( :-( :-(

...and on the first Page of my Booklet, there is a kink....on the last page (with the DVD-Credits) a huge tear. BTW: The Box was still sealed & delivered by amazon. It diminishes my joy. :(

A 2013 reunion to celebrate 20 years since they've met.........?

Can anybody confirm if 'Life Changes' on Blue Rock suddenly stops near the end and then the first seconds of the song start again.
I do hope there will be no more unwanted revelations.
