Thanks. I'm amazed Freddie turned up for both of those shows. After what I now know is The Brits, everyone was gossiping at work the next day 'did you see Freddie Mercury? He must have AIDS' etc...
if he didnt turn up...theyd be gossiping "oh no Freddie Mercury..he must have AIDS"

he was proud of their achievement and had every right to be, I admire the fact he went. and actually went to an aftershow party,although he left early which led to tabloids getting some pictures of him:(

I do, however, have a fault on disc one. The 'I Want To Break Free' video is in a really bad state, with lines and grain on the screen, sound scratching and just general tape damage. This is not the case with the version on my S. American Flix II DVD, so I thought that it must be some kind of damage on my DVD. So, I went back to the store and returned my GVH II for a new one, but it had the same glitch.[/QUOTE]

Yes I had the same problem ended taking them back twice and the third copy was fine

That's because it's 2.35:1 that was squashed to fit the screen for some reason. Use the TV's 16:9 mode on it and it should come out properly.

Nope, it does not work! I just checked it. No matter what I choose, the video looks odd. It is definitely an error!
Keep 'em mowing blades sharp!
mine only just let me watch staying power..after 4 attempts...then it was very glitchy

also, with the first disk, if I turn the dvd player off,then on again, when it reads it, it crashes on the main menu on freddie's face.but then if I press eject,then put it back in again,its fine

should I take it back? its a bit bizarre.. and annoying, to say the least
my player is nearly brand new too(i got it xmas day!)
Yes, My "Break Free" also played up too. I returned it, only to have the same problem - those horrid streaky lines at the start. But I found if I stopped it, and pressed play again, they disappeared and all was fine.
I like the material on the GH2, but think the quality is poor compared to GH1 (which I love).
Odd, mine turned out fine (including the 2.35:1 version of Hammer to Fall reading properly).

But then again, the first pressing of GVH1 that hit my area was burned wrong or something, and at least one video was always unplayable on my machine with each of the three packages I tried on it. I eventually gave up and waited a few months before trying again and it worked out.
