Bonus Audio from Hammersmith '75:

See What a Fool I've Been

From the screen caps, it looks like a cropped version of the 2003 Brazillian broadcast. The subtitles are cropped at the bottom and the blurred TV Logo is cropped at the top. I'm still downloading it even thought I have the Brazillian dvd because of the Audio options (except for the pseudo 5.1 mix) It also looks like the video was filtered. Was it?

Its from a different source than the DVD I mentioned earlier. I'm still downloading. I was able to do a screen cap from one of the VOB files thru Virtualdub MPEG2. Its an NTSC source which is good for me since I'm in NTSC land. I can't wait to finally watch this. Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for seeding this bootleg. It looks excellent

what version on the trader's den are you talking about?  The one seeding in this thread is the same as this one that's been up for discussion lately on Jam To This ...

if that's the one you mean. I haven't seen any chatter about one on TTD. I still would suggest if it's the best video quality you're after that the Room 101 version seeded here is the way to go....

Thank you very much !!

Many thanks Deltazulu for the information and Queenfreak for the post.

No, that version looks like shit compared to the 101 rooms version - that's the BEST EXISTING BOOTLEG OF THAT SHOW - at least the video

my pleasure [img=/images/smiley/msn/wink_smile.gif][/img]

can anyone please clarify; the rock masters version I have - is it crap compared to this one?

The SnowProd guy just took the audio from the "There Ain't No Sanity Clause" bootleg... which is mostly from a 2005 Swedish radio broadcast.  So it's certainly not "his" source.

The audio of snow productions its really good, you can hear in dolby surround the band playing next to you. But its a shame for the rock n' roll medley, it doesn't sound like the rest of the concert, why? , its a compilation of difrent audio sources?

unfortunately it's a comparison of the audio not the video. Room 101 is the better video
source compared to SP and RM. But what about Pittrek's version? Is his audio better
than Room 101? What about his video?

Just to clarify some people.

I have fully downloaded the Snow DVD and the Room 101 DVD (I saw the Room 101 over 5 times).

The Snow DVD has 3 audio sources:
- Radio PCM with overblown sound that causes distortion on PowerDVD (haven´t tried a dvd player yet)
- Swedish Radio sound , the only good reason to download this.
- Original TV audio, a bit worse than the others.

The Rock´n´Roll medley has the TV source in all 3 versions. Nothing can be done bout that I guess.

The video is awful and cropped.


So, if you want to watch video, download Room 101. It´s great.

So, if you want great sound, watch this crappy cropped version with great swedish radio audio or the apparently overblown audio on the other radio source if you can hear it without complaining.

However, the Snow Producciones video has some bits that aren´t in the Room 101 video. For example, the Bob Harris intro.

After.  Check out my website for the full sum-up.

No, it's not. There's no such thing as "NTSC source" of a PAL TV show. To be honest this PAL > NTSC and vice-versa conversions are a huge problem. If you would take the time and compare all the versions you would notice that almost every version runs at slightly different speed.

My audio is a compilation of the best available sources (it's complete and I shared it here) or to be precise - compilation of the sources I liked most.
My video is basically the 101 rooms version converted to PAL with (hopefully now) correct speed and removed the WoWoW logo and with the gaps filled from an old VHS tape of the original OGWT broadcast (the full Bob H. intro and the OGWT opening)

is it still seeding here? and have i got this part right... the video for the room 101 version would have originally been pal but was converted to ntsc... and now you've converted it back to pal?

A quick net surf will get anyone interested a simple cheat using IFOEdit that allows you to play PAL video on an NTSC machine... and vice versa. It works very well on most machines... and avoids the quality loss inherent in doing true conversions. (Also, many cheap machines play both Pal and NTSC.) Obviously the cheat is not for many purists.... because it makes it difficult to share the converted video in most trading circles. I usually keep one true copy and one converted one. (I have one cheapo machine that plays both formats... but I prefer to watch stuff on my PVR/DVD player...which only plays NTSC.) Also...please accept information as it's intended. You obviously think you're being criticized. And... by my read... you were not. We're all just trying to share knowledge. Please take good info when it's offered without feeling like someone's trying to make you look bad.

what was secondly? [img=/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif][/img]

This torrent has 28 seeders atm. It's a personalized torrent from www.jamtothis.com though, maybe that's why its not working for you. Go to www.jamtothis.com, register and get it from there. Very nice site btw.

Just guessing... maybe because you posted your personalized torrent here? Take a look at the completed downloads in http://www.jamtothis.com/showthread.php?p=108940, it's full with your name!

Please Seeds !!!!!

I'll second that.  Pittrek's work is consistently top notch, while most of the snow productions stuff is crap.  It has pretty menus, but the encoding is usually lossy and/or unnecessarily cropped to 16:9.

Pittrek's Hammersmith 1975 DVD edtion is for sure one of the best! I even played the dvd on my holiday in Switserland a few weeks back  ;-)  If you like to make another Christmas present, Pittrek...Maybe Newcastle 1986?? The ''so called master video version'' with synching the EX sounding audience audio source and maybe the TV special on it, but I have no idea how many versions of that TV special are around..  I know that Hernan Snow made a compilation, but since his versions are most of the time lossy, I like to know how Pittrek would do it ;-)
