Received my copy of this year's Eurovision Song Contest, and was thoroughly disappointed in the picture and sound quality when compared to previous releases.
Disc 1 and Disc 3 have a really bad juddery/smeary 25Hz film-effect applied to them throughout, whilst Disc 2 (Semi 2) is mainly 50Hz interlaced with fluid motion, until about 20 mins before the end of the show when there is a noticable jump and the 25Hz smeary/juddery motion starts.
The sound is just as bad. At times it sounds almost AM radio-like in quality - which is only to be expected when they encode 5.1 Dolby audio at 256kbps... Previous Eurovision discs have been at 448kbps and sounded MUCH better.
This is obviously sloppy mastering - not something you'd expect from such a major TV show. I am really disappointed that this is technically such a poor release...

I was very surprised and disappointed about the poor picture and sound quality of this year's release. I don't think I will bother watching the dvd ever again. Instead I will stick to the previous years' dvd's. A shame really.

I just received the DVDs today and I have to say I'm really disappointed at the quality of both picture and, especially, sound.
The good thing is that the three shows come complete and with extras. I hope they put more effort in the pic/sudio quality next year, after all it's a music tv show!
