Sign O' The Times DVD and suggestion I think they should release Sign O'The Times on dvd. Outside of it being a really good concert movie, the audio track would make a nice cd (especially the guitar riffs Prince did when he performed "I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man" in the movie. They'd have to cut something short seeing how the movie is 90min and 80 is about all you'll fit on a cd. If they did release just the dvd, you would have to convert the 96khz signal down to 44.1khz. Just an idea..... | |

moderatorDo not get any other then the Alliance one! Your dvd player should also have a two channel downconverted output for simple stereo... simply record that to your dv camera, then capture the footage for a simple down conversion to your computer. you will then have to convert form 48 to 44.1 to burn a cd... but many burning programs do this automatically...

I must say I didn't really like the dvd. The songs go so much faster than on cd, and I already figured out this is something Prince doesn't do that often.
Is there someone who can tell me how to see the difference between those dvd's? Link? | |

The Brazilian version is not sped up, has no interferences, but is very dark and mono: http://members.lycos.nl/c...eTimes.jpg The Dutch version is clear, dolby surround, but sped up and obviously a VHS-transfer http://www.freerecordshop...19&navid=3 The canadian version is supposed to be briljant, but I don’t own it! http://www.amazon.ca/exec...58-3962460 | |

Is there a better one you can buy over here? If there isn't, I won't be complaining over the silly 7 euros I spent. | |

DONT BUY THESE when the real thing is now available! As a matter of fact, you should dispose of these, if you own them, and get the real one ASAP! It's a dramatic and obvious difference.
The following are the fakes, not industry standard dvds. You can tell by their messed up packaging and pics that don't even go with the SOTT movie. If you buy these, you are buying into subpar bootleg quality: The Brazilian version is not sped up, has no interferences, but is very dark and mono: http://members.lycos.nl/c...eTimes.jpg The Dutch version is clear, dolby surround, but sped up and obviously a VHS-transfer http://www.freerecordshop...19&navid=3 My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

Although it's a good DVD i felt cheated when i heard nearly of the music is recorded and mixed in a studio afterwards No ... most of the music is genuine ..... it's recorded live in Rotterdam / Antwerpen He lip-synched to the original live recordings in the Paisley Park Studio's ... and he reworked the audio-track just a little ... So ... you're watching a fake concert movie, but you're listening to real live recordings. | |

It was only shot in Ahoy'Rotterdam and some scenes in Paisley Park if we are to believe the titles at the end (what is the *%&^%*&^ebglish word for that) | |
