Easter eggs on U2 DVD's....
I posted this in another thread but I thought I'd share because some of you might not know that there are easter eggs (a hidden piece of content on a DVD) in the Boston DVD and the Best Of DVD. I just wanted to share----->
Here's the easter eggs for the Best of DVD:
1. Easter egg: Footage from the making of the Last Night on Earth Video
How to access the easter egg:
At the main intro screen for the Last Night on Earth video there are 8 pictures on the left side of the screen. Start on the Director's Name (Smyth underlined). Press the UP and LEFT buttons in order four times, to navigate through the pictures until the third photo down on the far left is chosen. You will see a brown outline around the photo when you have selected it. Then choose ENTER. The easter egg will begin to play.
Alternatively, there's a cheat if the above doesn't work. As the DVD begins to play, hit STOP. Then on your remote, select DISPLAY or TITLE or whatever command allows you to skip directly to a certain track. You want track (title) 18.
2.. Easter egg: A fish tank with swimming Trabant cars
How to access the easter egg:
From the main menu, access the main screen for the One video. At this screen press '1' then enter and the screen will reload. Repeat hitting '1' and ENTER, two additional times and the fish tank will appear. The trabant takes some time before showing up, and if you leave it run long enough a two trabants will appear at the same time.
And easter eggs for the Boston DVD:
Disc 1
1. Easter egg: the performance of the song "Elevation" as seen entirely from Bono-cam
How to access the easter egg:
At the end of the "Making of" documentary when the Dreamchaser logo appears, you'll see a small image of Bono's face as "The Fly". Quickly click on that image. When you get to the screen with the flashing boxes, type 1, 9, 7, 6 and you should be taken to the easter egg. On some DVDs, you'll need to hit ENTER after each number.
Alternatively, there's a cheat if the above doesn't work. As the DVD begins to play, hit STOP. Then on your remote, select DISPLAY or TITLE or whatever command allows you to skip directly to a certain track. You want track (title) 3. On some DVD players, once you hit STOP, you can go directly to the easter egg just by touching the "3" on your remote.
Disc 2
2. Easter egg: the performance of "Until the End of the World" as seen entirely from Bono-cam
How to access the easter egg:
From the main menu, access the Help screen by clicking on the question mark. When you're at the Help screen, type 1, 9, 9, 1 and you might be taken to the easter egg. On some DVD players, you may need to hit ENTER after each number. This seems to be the more difficult of the two easter eggs to access, as many report this method doesn't work.
Alternatively, there's a cheat. Actually, there are several: a) go to the Additional Tracks screen and immediately press 7 on your remote - the easter egg may begin; b) if that doesn't work, press ENTER after you type the number 7; c) if that doesn't work, you may need to hit some combination of PLAY and/or MENU on your remote.
