    Shorter, or they needed a bit more time to make the commercials fit. I think that might have been the case.
  2. It would be easy enough to find out, if anyone’s recorded it just play NYD for example at the same time as the bootleg and see if they stay in time. I would be surprised if the tv station have sped it up but I don’t know how tv works.
  3. I know that on syndicated shows on US cable television, sometimes shows are slightly sped up slightly in order to make them fit within their allotted time so more commercials can be shown.
  4. They call it time compression
  5. It’s possible then they’ve done that. Apart from what I’ve suggested above it would also be interesting if someone manages to get a full version with the adverts taken out and see what it comes to compared to the video currently on YouTube.
  6. broadcast in 5.1?, and don't forget to record it for the people of orphaned countries!
  7. Dutch broadcast clearly sped up.. no doubt
  8. I guess even speeding it up a small amount could save them a good minute or so. 4500 seconds worth of material so a 2% increase in speed saves them a minute and a half and only reduces a 4 minute song by under 5 seconds.

    That's probably what happened here too.
  10. Maybe they were just experienting with speeds for the broadcast.
