Audio quality on James Paul McCartney DVD

[Onkster II]

…the one included on the RRS deluxe set.

So how is the sound? Mono? And does it have better frequency range than the TV versions most of us are used to?

I ask because some of the song versions here are my favorites, and would like to extract them for use in compilations.

Man, I'd love to be able to get a copy of the official DVD . I'm sure it's better than anything posted on YouTube .

This is the version from the official DVD. Awful sound.

[Onkster II]

Well, dangit. I wonder if some EQ/remixing/compression might help any of it. Still sounds like TV sound to me!

They've GOT to have better recordings from this in the vault somewhere. The acoustic medley exists in great quality. The rest ought to as well.

The version of Yesterday at the end has always been my favorite version , but it always had that transistor radio sound , but hey , what can you do ??

yeah, they probably have the original masters but are lazy to do any work with that

Would a direct copy of the official DVD be better than what's available from YouTube , I've heard that video stuff from there is compressed or knocked down in quality somehow , is that true ??

[Onkster II]

My guess would be yes, if only marginally. I’d love to work on a “restored” version of this, if only I could get a rip if the DVD audio.

Maybe a kind soul who is in possession of the official disc might see a way to share

The disk that came with the box set was not even full screen!
