I think it's region-free coding, so it should work on US DVD players....

Everything I've seen so far says it's region 2, not region free.

What does it mean by:
Regional Encoding: ALL
Is that something different?

No that would mean Regio 0: region-free.

I was surprised to get a knock on my door this morning from the postman. He then handed me a package from Japan and yes it was my copy of Super Live from hmv.co.jp. They were quick, was not really execting it before the end of the week especially as both countries have been on holiday.
Unfortunately, I had to leave about 2 mins later to go to work, but will be heading straight for my DVD player when I get home.
First stop disc 2 to take a look at the documentary and discover if there is anything else on the disc. Then back to disc 1 to view the concert in all its glory, between the first 2 episodes of Lost season 2 on TV.
I have already seen the concert on bootleg hence the reason I will be going for disc 2 first.
Warning Spoiler follows :
Box contains two booklets.
The first is a lyric booklet mainly in Japanese but also with UK lyrics. Full of text but no pictures except for a few adverts for ROTC etc.
The 2nd is a full colour booklet with many pics of Queen+PR is Japan, concert and welcome at airport. Text in English. Cover is a copy of the gold concert program from the European tour with the japanese writing on the back. Pics are good although you have probably seen most of them before. Quite a nice package overall.

My package arrived, too:)
I have to wait until tonight to watch the concert but I already scanned disc 2 which seems to be a nice documentary containing interviews with all band members and some footage from soundcheck and rehearsal. Fans from various countries were also interviewed, among them Michelle from Norway and Mr. Scully who is labelled "Queen fan from Slovakia" :)
Btw, the DVD is ALL regions and NTSC format, so US fans can play it, too. European fans need an NTSC compatible player but that is a standard.

You're 100% positive it's all region? Is there some indication on the disc or packaging? If not, how can you tell?
God I hope you're right!!!!

Checked again when I got home. The box definately says that it is all regions.
Is the show still the same as the TV broadcast, with credits in the begining (during Lose Yourself) and at the end? I can see them cutting Lose Yourself because of rights and shit (hope not), if so I think I'll hang on to the bootleg. I love that intro, shame it wasn't on ROTC.
The intro is complete:)
Well then...what else is on it?
...waiting...

Caution: spoiler
Disc 1 has the complete concert in stereo and DTS. You can choose between English, Japanese or no subtitles. You have a song select menu and that's it. But the concert is awesome and very well filmed in my opinion.
Disc 2 has a 25 minute documentary about the Budapest concert. It's short but very entertaining. It has interviews with all band members. If I remember correctly, I saw parts of the Brian interview somewhere else but the others are all new. Mainly Paul Rodgers has nice things to say about Queen, Queen music and the fans. We see the stage being built and bits of rehearsal and sound check. Also interviews with fans from all over Europe. Unfortunately, the part with the fans has only Japanese subtitles, so we don't understand what they say unless we speek Greek, Czech, Norwegian or Hungarian:) The rest of the documentary has English subtitles and is all English, anyway.
I think it's a DVD worth having, mainly when you had the chance to see a concert of the tour. One of the best concerts plus very nice additional footage which brings back a lot of good memories.

Your Valentine. The bits of Brian's interview that are on Super Live are from the Tour EPK which can be viewed on queenpluspaulrodgers.com under the Media section. I believe some of Paul's bits are also there, but not all. I think the Roger stuff on Super Live is all new.
