Johan or anyone that grabbed these two videos - I'm having problems burning this to DVD. Normally I'm pretty good at this too! I grabbed both files and extracted everything to the same folder (assuming this should all fit on one DVD). Opened it with DVD Shrink just in case this would be bigger than the single layer DVDr. I can see the videos on my PC just fine but both DVDs have failed in my player. First time I tried burning it straight up and the 2nd time doing reauthor mode to pull the video only. Also opened this in ConvertXtoDVD and for whatever reason it seems to only be able to open a 58 min video which i believe is the Adventures Beyond video only. Is this by chance a PAL rip? Sadly I didn't check before i chucked the discs and deleted the ISO i created. I'm not sure what software to use to ID this from the raw files supplied alone. Any help appreciated I'll nip this soon enough :) PS - The 2nd volume of "history of the orb"....is there anything exclusive to this release? I've surely grabbed all singles and remixes leading up to this.

Hello, In the previous decade, Dr. Winston O'Boogie (aka Christian Nelson) assembled the Orbus Aquarium DVD, a collection of the two VHS tapes (U.F.Off and Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld). I always thought that I was safe with my backup, but I discovered yesterday that both my burned DVD and my backup rar files are corrupt. Does anyone have the files and is willing to share?

Are Further Adventures Beyond Dark Matter DVD's, in 5.1?
by William Brooks 09 Feb '15

09 Feb '15

Just wondering, does anyone know if the Further Adventures Beyond Dark Matter DVD's, are in 5.1? Be nice to hear The Orb in 5.1 p.s. Related question, (sorry to spam the list), but I know that there are some audio experts out there. I've been using 2 x MD recorders, 4 mics, on my sunglasses, to record binaural, audio soundscapes, on my travels. Both recorders have recently failed. Any advice would be much appreciated, on some replacement, suitably priced, high quality, portable recording devices? Cheers, william, bbbrooo (at) hotmail (dot) com.

A Quick Update on the delivery of the Further Adventures Beyond Dark Matter CD/DVD
by William Brooks 06 Feb '15

06 Feb '15

I expect that everyone received this today: >We are pleased to say it is all finally coming together, The final edit of the show is taking place as we speak and the extras are being delivered this week for the bonus DVD. We know this has all taken way too long to get out and we apologise and thank you for your patience. Rather than wait any longer we have decided to ship the package with the CD’s in now, and deliver the DVD’s as soon as they are finished.. The band did the signing this week and the Cds will all be shipped by Monday. Some of you will have already received the unsigned package with the 2 CDs inside, I am pleased to say after discussion with Alex and Thomas we are going to send all preorder customers a signed sleeve. So anyone who has received an unsigned copy will get a signed one when we ship the DVDs. We are hoping this will be in about 3 weeks. Best Wishes Live Here Now and The Orb< "extras" - mmm!

Interesting update from Sandbag

Cheers Pete aka theORBscureDDJ http://theorbscureddj.blogspot.co.uk/ +play+enjoy+float+dream+ From: mailto:orders@sandbaguk.com Sent: Tuesday, February 03, 2015 2:09 PM To: theORBscureDDJ Subject: RE: Progress/release of an order Hi Pete, Thank you for your email – It is our understanding that all those who received CDs in the post recently are unsigned. Therefore, if yours has not arrived then we are pretty sure yours will follow but with signatures. This is not guaranteed but is probably the answer to your enquiry. We have not sent the CDs from here – Abbey Road have. In addition, all DVDs will follow after all the CDs have been sent. Kindest regards, Sandbag

Live at Brixton CD/DVD
by Jason 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Hey everyone, Just wondering if anyone has requested a refund yet for the Brixton CD/DVD set since it is been almost a year now since they went up for pre-sale nine months ago. Has anyone heard any update about this? Pretty frustrating that this is taking so long and I have to say this combined with a mis-ship that I got from The Orb website that was never corrected have me wondering what is going on with The Orb's management/merchandising team. If anyone did request a refund, was it an easy process? Thanks for any info! Jason
