Notes:
I received this video in a DVD trade from Jimmy Mac. It was a bare
standalone capture, which I later learned was made by Dan Sisler from
his VHS. Thank you to Dan for the great video.
This was just suffering from the normal stuff that's expected, some of
which was able to be improved. The audio on the DVD was from the VHS
source and was an FM source before that. It was in mono and had some
of the usual problems as well as radio commercials in between songs.
The picture quality was very good. This upgrade is that video synched
with the Pre-FM soundboard audio source, some minor patching and touch
up, menus and chapters, etc.
As expected, the timings on the video were slightly longer due to some
typical tape stretching. This was fixed by going through the video and
speeding it up very slightly for a couple seconds every few minutes or
so, or in some cases pulling the video back a couple frames between
angles. This was all done as discreetly as possible, and in most cases
should not be noticeable.
The Pre-FM audio source did not include the soundcheck which was on
the video. After searching for an audio upgrade for the soundcheck to
no avail, the audio that was on the original DVD was used, with some
slight alterations. There was a noticeable hiss throughout, and noise
reduction was applied to the parts in between songs, but not during
any of the music. A radio commercial was replaced with crowd noise
from the Pre-FM source, and some fades were applied.
Also, during the show, there were about 3 minutes after Sugaree, about
1.5 minutes after Passenger, and about 1 minute during the encore
break of crowd noise missing from the primary audio source, which were
filled in with crowd noise from other parts. All these transitions
were smoothed with crossfades.
The video showed static at all the edges, and this was easily covered
up. There were about 15 seconds of video missing during idle time in
between Stagger Lee and Passenger, and about 30 seconds of video
missing during Fire On The Mountain which were filled in with
graphics.
The audio source had several level drops in the right channel during
Me & My Uncle > Big River. These were smoothed somewhat by adjusting
the L/R inputs in the right channel over each spot. At the same point
where the right channel issues started there was a quick swell in the
left channel which was quieted. During Drums there was a section cut
about 20 seconds long on the audio source that repeated itself,
possibly from a tape flip overlap in the DAT transfer.
Much thanks to everyone else who made this one possible. Enjoy. -Pat
