Some video releases have a 60 minute version, with some unknown tracks edited out. 'Jailhouse Rock' is only on some laserdiscs and the DVD. The standard VHS video has a running time of approx 90 minutes, whereas the DVD lasts for 96 minutes; the content is identical, the video runs slightly faster so all tracks are a few seconds shorter.

The DVD features both Stereo and Surround Sound mixes. For the Surround Sound, the vocals are more prominent through the front speakers than the rear, but there do not seem to be any other changes.

The 'Queen Rock Montreal' release has newly restored footage and improved sound quality. Visually there are some differences, it has new titles, alternative footage at the end, and there are also slight differences in places with camera angles, but nothing major. In terms of the audio, there are also differences, as this release has some vocals added or removed from the audio mix - see the 'Queen Rock Montreal' album page for full details.
