the Smashing Pumpkins - Crystallization

================================== Crystallization - DVB Pumpkins ================================== This might just be the only disc of it's kind. It contains lossless audio AND video Pumpkins, which remains something of a rarity to this day. Though the quality vary between the clips, it represents the best available source, at least as of yet, for each one of them. They are by all but stringent academic standards identical to the respective broadcasts sent out in the first place. But this is not enough. Loads of greatness awaits, most any Pro Video would've had or could've had a source broadcast just as great, wasted on vhs or dvdrecorders. Do you want more? The Rockpalast clip comes from a complete concert that has been aired at least once a year 1996-2001, but never since. The people responsible for the broadcasts are likely Pumpkins fans, and regardless in many aspects unique in the way they allow feedback from their audience to influence their programming. Please make the (trivial) effort of requesting the complete concert. Rockpalast will almost certainly heed to the call if a few hundred, heck, a few ten, would contact them.

A few select phrases of German: German: ------- [1] "Konnten Sie das Konzert 'the Smashing Pumpkins' von 1996 bitte zeigen? Ich sah 'Today' vor kurzem und es war Super!" [2] "Zeigen Sie bitte dem Konzert 'the Smashing Pumpkins' von 1996!" [3] "Mehr Smashing Pumpkins bitte!" [4] "er Clip der Smashing Pumpkins war groß. Mehr von diesem Rockpalast!" English: -------- [1] "Could you show the concert 'the Smashing Pumpkins' from 1996 please? I saw 'Today' recently and it was super!" [2] "Please show the concert 'the Smashing Pumpkins' from 1996!" [3] "More Smashing Pumpkins please!" [4] "the Smashing Pumpkins clip was great. More of that Rockpalast!" These, combined with some limited linguistic wit, and babelfish, should make your requests legible enough. I will continue to record any DVB Pumpkins I can get my hands on, but this would be quite a big thing. Equally so, any effort taken by the community towards this would signal praise and motivation to my ongoing pursuit. If these little dvds I post means something to people, then surely this concert, yet to be recorded, means something too? How much? Does the immense tremble and effort of communicating some lines in German really surpass the joy you would feel, had you that concert right now? You decide.

Software includes ProgDVB, DVBPortal, MyTheatre and MediaMex. All files were checked with ProjectX to assure that no signal loss had occurred. Furthermore the actual files were checked with Mpeg2repair to ensure their consistency towards the mpeg2-standard. I&I was repaired because it had a minor error that would cause a single video glitch with some players. It now exhibits none of this or any sign whatsoever that would conject it's perfection. (Check it yourself, "In you I count stars!") I&I = Star! (Sweden) Bowie = Onyx (Germany, now defunct.) Mtv Live = MTV2 (UK) Studio Pop = SVT1 (Sweden) Rockpalast = WDR (Germany) Letterman = CBS Feed (Europe) =========== Content =========== AUDIO_TS VIDEO_TS the Smashing Pumpkins - Crystallization.txt (this file) .MD5 (regular checksum) *.PAR2 (advanced checksum that includes parity bytes, for recovery) You need to copy the checksum files to the VIDEO_TS dir in order to verify the dvd. They cannot be placed there when you burn the disc, it would break the dvd-standard. The par2 files will help you recover from a partially damaged(scratched) disc. Simply copy everything to HDD and run quickpar with the par2-files. ======= MD5 ======= 5c447bc987e7429b5ba82132cd0f18ca *VIDEO_TS.BUP 5c447bc987e7429b5ba82132cd0f18ca *VIDEO_TS.IFO 60f0e4d95c41dce1e98030458c6281aa *VIDEO_TS.VOB 97d05fefe7406ddfe72feacd470b96e3 *VTS_01_0.BUP 97d05fefe7406ddfe72feacd470b96e3 *VTS_01_0.IFO 3e7da084b285dfd8d934487ade5995d8 *VTS_01_0.VOB 3a93dfa0a1c90f1ceac36edcb2f95a92 *VTS_01_1.VOB 4f5c3aae237b9bf84e4e2a1861448415 *VTS_01_2.VOB a33db32c63d6a4b67258c2684981f67e *VTS_02_0.BUP a33db32c63d6a4b67258c2684981f67e *VTS_02_0.IFO e2a957bba05304573055daa36d97696a *VTS_02_0.VOB b18a062268a5719043f5f23f1f58d08a *VTS_02_1.VOB d9fb68bb7c1ed3190a7277cb8100d853 *VTS_03_0.BUP d9fb68bb7c1ed3190a7277cb8100d853 *VTS_03_0.IFO 2a8564ed5e57e54ac844de57d346261e *VTS_03_0.VOB 3553772af1d4da59c27a6a291adcd7ab *VTS_03_1.VOB bef416a10a1c333a8743a27fbcaa4c4b *VTS_04_0.BUP bef416a10a1c333a8743a27fbcaa4c4b *VTS_04_0.IFO 3713c7f4f321f216f5810c8b6303bcec *VTS_04_0.VOB c0232aad63db5d345a6462539103ec29 *VTS_04_1.VOB 523479fedde578694b5e3fe82b34db2a *VTS_05_0.BUP 523479fedde578694b5e3fe82b34db2a *VTS_05_0.IFO 84f88717a4d45ccae5fa37944fe9eddd *VTS_05_0.VOB 95fa13dc540f04facd253fa82d5947fc *VTS_05_1.VOB 9339fcc8274610e46cb76859fdefae82 *VTS_06_0.BUP 9339fcc8274610e46cb76859fdefae82 *VTS_06_0.IFO b1f596f8c4a0abfb6308d0b22eb320e7 *VTS_06_0.VOB 700da4f955d65c8dea555c8cbbb62e69 *VTS_06_1.VOB f3fad77e658e835eda79ca41927fcc22 *VTS_07_0.BUP f3fad77e658e835eda79ca41927fcc22 *VTS_07_0.IFO a5a9b2788d92f10247df7225d42dc026 *VTS_07_1.VOB
