HiRez Poll R.E.M. - OUT OF TIME [DVD-A/Blu-Ray Audio]

[Strilo]

The DVD-A of AFTP was the first of the series that I bought. I didn't even know they'd done all those albums in surround. Now I own them all!

 

[Strilo]

And by "all" I meant everything AFTP and after. For whatever stupid reason, I never got Out of Time. I just remedied this by ordering the 2005 DVD-A of Out of Time. Cannot wait!

You should pick up Green that was the first album (based on original release year) to get the CD & DVD-A treatment in 2005, and also Document on DVD-A or DualDisc (which unfortunately is the only album from the I.R.S. years to have been remixed in 5.1).

 

[Strilo]

I totally did that as well but that's a different thread...

So I've had a hell of a time trying to get this on DVD-A. I ordered one from Discogs that was Near Mint and it arrived with clouded discs that had clearly oxidized. The seller didn't even check before shipping. I managed to get that refunded, then found a seller in Australia who had both Out of Time DVD-A and Green DVD-A so I bought both from him. He messaged me today to say he checked the discs and found that Green's DVD-A was clouded and oxidized and the RBCD for Out of Time was as well. I went ahead and told him to send me the DVD-A for Out of Time, as I already have the CD.

That said, does anyone know if this is a known issue with these REM albums? I never had an issue with the seven other ones I got the same way...

Woah. I just checked both titles, and my Green DVD-A (from the UK CD/DVD-A release) is going cloudy.

EDIT: still loads though.

Both the DVD-A and CD of my copy of Green are very clouded. I played the entire MLP 5.1 set without a hiccup. I bought this used a few years back for not very much - it's a digipak made in the E.U.

 

[Snood]

Hmmm Snood just checked - both mine are still perfect, but me also keep them closed up in resealable covers doubt that would help with that kind of stuff though

 

[Strilo]

Apparently Warner didn't always pick the best DVD manufacturers... the person I bought these from said that.

The bass on this album!

I finally got my situation all sorted out with good copies of Green and Out Of Time. LOVE this album in surround.

I'd like to buy a copy of this. It's primarily for the surround mix, but also for a well-mastered stereo mix. As far as I understand, with the DVD-Audio I'd get both, 5.1 and great stereo mix (possibly the same mastering of the 1991 CD?). With the blu-ray, I'd get the same surround mix, but the remastered version of the album (not what I'm after). There would be the videos as a bonus though... Would that be correct?

Listened to this so much in the 90s. Made me appreciate CDs, I'd have worn out a vinyl or tape.
