So disappointed. I downloaded the Summersonic video this afternoon before it was taken down. Unfortunately, the video is amazing, but there is no sound. Should have checked it right away. Maybe the poster will be able to put it up again. javascript:addS('http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Moiii-1.gif','  ');popCollapse() I downloaded it too. I'm on a Mac and it downloaded as a .MP4 file format. Can't play it at all. It looks like it should open in QuickTime--but doesn't. Waaaaa! This file will play in VLC Media Player which is a free software available for Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs. It will NOT play with Windows Media Player or QuickTime or even QuickTime Pro. It will also likely play with any free or commercial software that specifically plays DVDs and/or Blu-Rays. For example, it does play in CyberLink PowerDVD on my Windows PC. Technical answer:This is because not all MP4 files are alike! MP4 is NOT a video format. MP4 is a CONTAINER format. A container is a file format that "contains" 1 or more "streams" - video is a steam, audio is a stream, and sub-title text is a stream, all of which can be contained in the same container file. And there can be more than 1 sub-title text stream in a container file, e.g., separate sub-title text streams for different languages. And there can be more than 1 audio stream in a container file, again, maybe in different languages, or even just a different audio mix. For example, one of the 2012 London QAL video files has 2 different audio streams with 2 different mixes of the audio from 2 different sources. (ETA - The video play handles mixing the video strean with the selected audio and/or sub-title text streams at play time.) There is a free software (available on both Windows and Mac) called MediaInfo which can tell you exactly what the video and audio formats are inside of any video or audio file. Looking at a MP4 file downloaded from YouTube, the audio is usually in AAC format, which is the default format for iTunes and all things Apple. (The AAC audio format is basically the same thing as a M4A audio format, just a different name for the same thing in most cases.) Looking at the Supersonic downloaded MP4 file in question with MediaInfo, the audio is in AC-3 format, which is the Dolby Digital audio format used on DVDs. This is why WMP and QuickTime will not play the audio in this file but other media players with more support for playing DVDs will play this format. Other common video container file types that you may see Adam/QAL video in are TS, MTS, M2TS (same thing as MTS). ETA - In contrast, a MPG video file is NOT a CONTAINER file! In a MPG file, the video and audio are tightly woven into a single "stream" and there is no need for mixing of the video and audio at play time. |

The date makes geographic sense -- Poland after Italy - Germany. I have been trying to figure out where they might go. I think this could be a lot of shows -- over twenty, and 7-8 weeks. mid-January to mid-March works for what we know of Adam's schedule. London O2 seems like the kick off date. (my bet is they return to the UK and then to London when they are all done). And there are a lot of likely tour destinations: London show - opener France - Paris Spain - 2 shows - Madrid and Barcelona Portugal Italy - Rome, Florence, Milan Switzerland Austria - Vienna Germany - usually gets a lot of shows - Munich, Leipzig, Frankfort, Dortmund, Hamburg, Berlin Poland Czech Republic Sweden Belgium Netherlands - 2 shows Hungary England - London, Manchester, 3 more Wales Northern Ireland Ireland Possibles: Norway and Finland They will close this tour up at a later date with a concert in London -- a summer 2015 special event? That is almost as much as the entire tour that just ended. I sure as hell hope we don't have him touring into April! Could be since Europe is a lot bigger than North America (people and Queen fans) -- 742 million people. I think it has to be 20+ shows for the initial announcement to make financial sense. My guess is 24-28 shows -- and done in March. Then we get A3.  |

Is there someone to get this from someone who did download it? |

I like it! But why do you think 2 shows in the Netherlands? I know Queen is big here, but we are not so big a country. I am secretly counting on one show, but 2 would be a dream. And I just realised that the announcement will be at 9 am on a normal work day. How am I supposed to concentrate on real life stuff when I could get comfirmation that I can see QAL again?? Just my guess based on past tours and the way the US tour was set up. I just think they will do a lot of shows where they can stay in the same hotel base -- UK, Germany, Italy and Belgium-Netherlands seem to fit that. Also, maybe Denmark should be on the list? |
