Major Time Trippin' in Videos I Thought Were Destroyed

Cadillac Man nails two over-the-wall home runs in a row as the second CD contains videos which were previously thought lost after the Great Computer Disaster of 2003 or so.  Many thanks again as this stuff I thought was nothing but vapor anymore.

"Anthem of the Dead" was filmed in pieces in late 90's and early 00's and this was all the way gone except for crumby versions which were heavily-compressed.  It's been missed because it's the only one which went completely nuts for compositing Silas all over the place and there are four of him on 'stage' at once in one of the scenes.  The video is Milli Vanilli filmage over tracks I had recorded previously.  The dubbing isn't hard to spot if you look for it but, overall, I think it was medium cool for how the hell did he do that.

One full-res video of the DVD copy I have now has been ripped to MKV which, I believe, is acceptable to YouTube.  Short debate on whether it's worth trying to get a 'better' copy for various geek reasons.

There has already been a short geek debate on whether to import it into Final Cut to juice the audio a tad but that's fraught with geekfulness so that debate ended quickly.
