Lauren looks great here in a fluffy outfit and turns out a wonderful performance. The footage quality is excellent.

This is what their modern set is supposed to look like and it does take a high bitrate to show the detail- Bits/Pixel*Frame=0.285. For example, compare this to the 2018-09-21 Life Is Beautiful Festival, Las Vegas, NV (Bits/Pixel*Frame=0.064) and 2018-10-03 89.3 The Current, Minnesota Public Radio (Bits/Pixel*Frame=0.061) gigs where the bitrates used were a fraction of what this one has. There is no substitute for bits.

Lineage: file sharing website with "FEED" in the upload description -> unknown method of capture to 25FPS AVC1 1080i 14600Kbps .ts -> Videoredo remuxed to .mp4 (not used) and QSF (VRD Quick Stream Fix) .ts, lossless process and no errors reported -> using Virtualdub2 + DGDecodeNV: with the .ts split into elementary streams, Avisynth QTGMC deinterlace makes this 1080p and 50FPS (this slow process adds detail and temporal information not visible with realtime deinterlacers) -> .mp4 -> using MP4Box: .mp4 + .mp2 -> .mp4

This was the most difficult video I've ever worked on. Every AVC source filter failed to properly open the stream in any editor, with or without Avisynth (no macro-blocking, correct field count, etc.). I tried every ripping/conversion package on Videohelp and Doom9 and some others. None worked properly to get what I wanted- a high quality 50FPS and 1080p via QTGMC. I was about to give up when I realized I had not tried DGDecodeNV. First I had to determine if my 2014 era NVidia video card was compatible (it is). Then I made the $15 donation and got a copy of the DGDecodeNV binaries. I read Donald's development webpage and it was pretty clear he put some major effort into developing this AVC source filter. It works perfectly, where all the others failed. Kudos to Donald for creating it.
