Glitches and Bugs

This DVD was made from previous performances and live clips. It's uncertain why the DVD has so many glitches, like the fact that it's not readable on some DVD-players. The DVD seems to be compatible with the Xbox, Xbox 360 and PS2 DVD player. The UK edition of the DVD seems to have no problems. The DVD is recorded in 2.0 channel stereo at 192 kbit/s.
