Video bitrate kept lower than normal to make room for the additional uncompressed audio streams while staying under the total bitrate spec for DVD compliance. It was worth it. This is also a very dark show. Not my fault but the lighting director. I adjusted the brightness up to a point where the video imperfections would not stand out too much (tape grain, etc....), Overall a 8% increase. Filler added between songs to fill in where video was missing compared to what was on the audio bootleg.
