Hey,
Here is Get On Your Boots from today's performance at the Echo Awards, Berlin!
No its not a HD (nor digital recording) but it looks pretty good for an analogue cable recording

Now I'll stop bragging. See links below

1. Get On Your Boots
Lineage: Analogue Cable -> NVTV Tuner (HW MPEG2 encoding; VBR best quality) -> MPEG4 (Mencoder; copy audiostream; crop black bars; deinterlace; 2 pass encoding) -> You
Details:
Captured with NVTV Tuner in Dell dockingstation for laptops. Analogue cable, amplifier and 20m KOKA799 coax cable. Recorded using MediaPortal and its TV Server.
Encoded to MPEG4 codec with Mencoder, deinterlaced with Yadif and copied original audio stream from HW encoding TV tuner.
Cropped from 720x576 (4:3) to 720x432 (16) to remove black bars. Some noise and some pixelation. Raw MPEG2 TS stream has less pixelation but has black bars. Will upload this version as well.
Share!

Problems with WMP
Windows is not shipped with MPEG2 audio codec and MPEG4 video codecs. Download and install ffdshow from http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/ and you wont have any problems with this video. And as an extra almost every video you will ever download will work on your pc

I checked U2Torrents if they allow these kind of recordings. I am not sure. If someone feels like seeding it there: i have no problem with that
