Chicago and Earth, Wind & Fire Live at the Greek Theatre2

Disk #2: Chicago and Earth Wind and Fire Live at the Greek Theater2 1080p x264 DTS.mkv

Here we have another HD musical performance from the BD workshop. This Chicago concert is broken up into two disks, and this is the Second part disk. I'll leave it up to you to decide which disk is better. The first disk is mostly Earth Wind and Fire, and the second disk is mostly Chicago.

I've always been a fan of rock groups with lots of brass and Chicago adds some jazz to the equation. Earth wind and Fire is a terrific complement to Chicago.

The original interlaced video is deinterlaced and re-encoded using x264 at 29.97 frames per second and should be suitable for re-authoring as BD if desired. We processed the lossless DTS-HD audio track to standard DTS 5.1 audio to conserve bandwidth. The concert is broken into two segments, each of which will fit perfectly on a single layered DVD-5 disk.

Playback Tips: I use BSplayer (WMP sucks) to play the show on the PC. You will need special filters to decode the AC3 and X264. The following programs are preferred, I suggest you uninstall anything else you may be using, especially if you find the audio out of synch.
