GVH2 DVD errors

The only error I found on my DVD was the Ian & Belinda video.

Same here, Lester. Same here...

I didn't mean just music DVDs. I meant DVDs in general, movies also.
From the music DVD's I have the absolute highlight is Carlos Santana's Supernatural. What a picture and sound! I know that Queen videos can't be restored to similar quality but at least they could be without errors.
But as I said, I can't claim all Queen DVD's having errors. I haven't heard anyone having troubles with Wembley or Freddie Tribute DVDs.
By the way, I have problems also with my The Game DVD-A. It gets jammed if I try to skip tracks when I listen it in DTS. I usually listen the whole album through, so it's not necessary to skip any songs. If I do want to skip some, I simply change the audio settings to stereo.

Damn. You do get a lot of errors. The Game's fine with me too.

I haven't heard anyone having troubles with Wembley


I think Barb said she had a error and had to ask for a exchange or so.

Um, on Who Wants to Live Forever, I get Brian's commentary in French subtitles... and I didn't put any of them on...

my dvd is fine but how do u get the bowie interview

I had troubles with my DVD here in Australia too, Break Free - awful lines until I press stop and play again - I get a replacement, but was the same
"teddybear"

I have it from CDWOW (black cover) and it plays perfectly, even in Break Free and Invisible Man.

I had a problem with GVH1 Disc 1 but it was a HUGE scratch on the disc rather than with the disc itself. I've had no problems with either of the GVH2 discs.

"The only error I found on my DVD was the Ian & Belinda video."

Yeah... HUGE error there. Simply ghastly. But, it WAS for a good cause.

Errors / Problems / WTF:

A Kind of Magic - The picture is squished. Looks stupid

Radio Ga Ga - Somebody must have been on crack when they did this.

Box states all videos are in 16:9. Obviously they are not.

Box states that the One Vision documentry lasts for "30 minutes". It only lasts 18.

The sleeve is too small for the box. It is a sleeve for a single DVD case not a double DVD case. All copies in Best Buy here were like that.

It if it was not for the audio commentary and the special features on Disc 2, this would not be worth owning in my opinion.

I have several music DVD's by other artists. The Queen discs, with the exception of Wembley, are the some of the poorest I own.

PieterMC, I think some of your errors are a little unfounded.

"A Kind of Magic - The picture is squished. Looks stupid"

The picture looks fine once the respective tv is used. 4:3 and 16:9 tv's will set the picture correctly. The point of this strategy is that it will look correct on either system.

"Radio Ga Ga - Somebody must have been on crack when they did this."

Looks fine on mine.

"Box states all videos are in 16:9. Obviously they are not."

Technically, they are, i.e. even AKOM.


Peace,

ALL videos have been encoded as 16:9. This is a fact.

As for the videos you say are 4:3... They're squeezed together on either WS or FS tv to get the original 4:3 look. I believe this was to retain what they originally wanted. They will work on either system. I'm really baffled when you say that you have to change your player to 16:9 and then back to...whatever it was set at. Can't say I've ever had to do that.

HTF is pretty weird looking. I don't know if it was intentional or not. I'm guessing that's a real mistake.

You're having problems with your insert sleeve? Can't say I've had that one. Take it back to shops, perhaps?

Peace,
Adam.
