FMac DVD's and Videos

[tr1]

I know that there are 2 VHS videos that used to be available. One was the "Tusk Documentary" and the other was "The Mirage Tour" concert recorded at the L.A. Forum. Does anyone know if these will ever be released on DVD? I know you can't even get the VHS copies anymore.

Maybe not official but there is a DVD release of the Mirage video that's pretty good available, I bought my copy at a "regular" cd-store and it's good quality, not bootleg-crap!

Would that CD store happen to be anywhere near the Los Angeles area by chance???

You could do what I did and download a high-quality version of the Mirage Tour concert from the internet for free:

First go here and download Bittorrent (it's free), and afterwards go here and download this torrent for the concert and enjoy (you can then burn it on a DVD)! The only requirement is a high-speed connection.

Thanks Matt,
A couple quick questions:
Do you know of a free program to burn these files to DVD, my computer has ULEAD and it doesn't recognize these types of files especially AVI
I have the original VHS but it doesn't allow me to transfer to DVD because of the copy protection, does anyone know of a way to transfer my VHS to DVD and remove the copy protection. I have AnyDVD but it seems you need a physical DVD to use it.
Thanks

You're welcome.

The program that you seek that'll allow you to burn the files to DVD for free is DVD Flick. Onward... I'm afraid I know of no free VHS to DVD converters, but here's a reputedly effective one available for purchase: VHS to DVD 2.0. Good luck.

Thanks Matt, I'm downloading the DVD burner now! I see you're from Milwuakee. Most of my family lives there, and I will too. (After school lets out, atleast.)

You're more than welcome. I'm simply glad to be of service.

You're from Madison, I see. Good times. I'm originally from California and moved here to Milwaukee with my mom and two sisters at the age of 12, and though it was hardly a seamless transition relocating to such a comparatively tepid, uneventful atmosphere, I've come to enjoy my time living here. That aside, I feel compelled to proclaim my love for the Green Bay Packe -- you see, I -- all right, back on topic, ahem.

I used to have the VHS for the "Tango In The Night" concert taped at the Cow Palace in SF in 1987. I was at the show when it was taped and it was phenomenal!!!! Owned the VHS until I wore it out!!!

Haven't looked to see if I can get it on DVD or not but sure would like to if it's available. Most of the video from those shows is on Youtube though.

Doesn't the Nicks Fix have a link to the Mirage video? It's not an official remaster but at least it's a decent DVD version.

I keep harassing random people I meet, "Do you have a laserdisc player? Do you? DO YOU?" for I have the Tusk documentary on a pretty much brand new laserdisc and it is my eventual goal to rip that as cleanly as possible and make a shiny DVD that I can watch whenever I want.

I've never worked with laserdiscs in this way, but I assume there has to be a way to do it and keep it mostly lossless. Time will tell.

Where can I find Rosebud and the Tusk Doc?

It is available on DVD, I own it personally- and I really love it!

I'd like to know the answer to this as well. I specifically desire the Tusk Doc with a passion (that live performance of Angel was spectacular!).
