MTV Awards performance bonus on "4 Those Of U On Valium" DVD ...

Quick question for bootleg specialists...

As we all know, "4 Those Of U On Valium" is a classic boot, great audio but I still don't watch the DVD too often because of the dark picture quality. However, watching my Digital Cruciality dvd copy recently, I noticed today that there are two different versions at the end of the "Sign O' The Times"/"Play In The Sunshine" MTV Awards 87 Performance... The second one is the better quality one I think, but what is the main difference here? Different sources? I see some japanese writing for a second at the beginning of the second one...?

No big deal, just made me curious, never noticed it was included twice on my dvd before. What is the difference ?

Different source. I have seen Sign O' The Times on VH1 classics in perfect quality. Not sure if that is where they got it for that DVD.
