Tech Notes The Cars 1984-09-11 Houston, TX (NTSC)
As you can see from the info. below I swapped in alternate audio for this. Not that the video
source is bad, in fact it is excellent. It's just that I think this vinyl source is really fantastic and
sounds superior to the video source when played through good speakers such as
Vandersteens. So I would recommend that you do not judge the sound through your TV's
speakers. The audio was synched up perfectly throughout using Amadeus II. And since I
used alternate audio I went ahead and included all of the last song, which was faded out
during the credits on the original. To do this I re-used crowd and off-stage shots. The video
quality is flawless all the way through but isn't always all that sharp. I'd say it's pretty typical
of a mid-eighties shot, still very good though. I rarely see anything from this era that is much
better. I'd rate the video a borderline A+ and the audio an A+. There are proper chapters...
none of this 5-min. stuff. There is no menu... it auto starts.
