GVH2 fault.

Hi.

I was wondering whether any of you have noticed this aswell. On disc 2 of GVH2 if you go to the miracle interviews at the very end of the interviews when the screen goes blank it plays 3 seconds of Cillas Goodbye To The Eighties and then stops and goes to the main screen. Do you think the goodbye to the eighties was gonna be put on there as one of the extras and then was taken off for some reason. Is this the same on your GVH2 DVD? Sorry if this has been a topic before.
Happy new year.

thanks, Stephen.

This was discussed after the release of GVH2.

probably diabolical editing.

I'll have to check it out ;)

Disc 1:

I Want To Break Free - the picture twitches
The Invisible Man - the picture twitches
Hammer To Fall - the guys looks too thin even in 16:9

Yes, this has been discussed before. I hope that thread still exists and hasn't been deleted.

As for the goodbye to the 80's thing:

I've found that this can happen to my own dvd making process. It's not bad editing, it's simply misbehaving software processing. I've processed videos where I cut off the footage before it appears/sounds. But sometimes a small bit still appears on the final render. It's very unpredictable.

And yes, the Hammer To Fall video is badly processed. Somebody stretched that one out incorrectly.

Peace,

The Calling All Girls and Back Chat videos on my copy are kind of glitchy.

Did Queen appear in person on this Cilla show?

Yes they did appear in the Cilla show. Freddie didn't say anything though it was just Brian that did all the talking.

Yeah when I play the Hot Space videos, the opening screens to Calling All Girls and Back Chat sort of freeze up and the sound gets skippy in the intros.

The reason for the twitchiness in the "I Want To Break Free" and "The Invisible Man" videos is because they were obviously re-encoded twice with different settings at least, up to and including the DVD master version.

Reason being is because the Top A Field option was used when re-encoding a Top (or Lower?) B Field encoded video.

Basically, in English: it's all down to different interlacing fields from multiple encodings clashing with each other.

These flickers therefore are only 'visible' on an interlaced TV; progressive TV's should not have a problem with this, as they do not obviously display the video in an interlaced form (NTSC TV's are notorious for the constant bad quality they're known for because of the interlaced properties, for one thing - there are only 525 lines of resolution on NTSC TV's (for full frame TVs anyways) and videos, whereas PAL TV systems have 625 lines, so I don't think that the flickers are as noticable on the PAL TVs as they are on the NTSC TVs when watching this DVD - I could be wrong)

Don't take my word for it, as I am not quite a full expert on video products and stuff (I'm still trying to figure out things related to LaserDiscs still that confuse me!), but having worked on several home-made DVD's over the past year, this is what I can attest

Now I'm confused. I remember seeing Queen pick up an award on a UK Tv show around late 89 or early 90 and I always thought it was the Brits, but maybe it was this Cilla show then.

Did Fred look terribly thin and wore a suit and let Brian do all the talking. That is kind of what I remember, unless I'm mixing up bits of both shows.

Was it actually broadcast on New Years Eve, because I remember everyone at work the next morning all talking about Freddie's appearance but I don't think that would have been New Years Day.

I remember watching a clip of that show, with Cilla Black. Freddie didn't speak, and after Brian had finished, Cilla said "Awww he's lovely" or something...

I've seen the whole of Cillas Goodbye to the eighties. When i first saw it i remembered Freddie looked pretty bad but he dosn't look as bad as a clip i saw of the 1990 brit awards. He looks awful. I remember i the clip i saw all he said in that was thankyou, Good night as they were all walking off.

If Freddie wears the light blue suit on video - it's Brits. If he wears the dark suit - it's Cilla's show.

Cilla's show you can watch on 'Champions of the World' video.
