DVD segmentsIn addition to videos for each of the songs from Greedy Baby, the DVD has four bonus videos from Jaroc, set to tracks from other Plaid albums and used on tour. Included below are brief descriptions of Jaroc's visuals for each track. - "War Dialer"
- Visual representation of the titular device, using a modem generating random number combinations to find real phone numbers for hacking purposes.
- "I Citizen The Loathsome"
- Seamlessly sequenced footage of various streets at night. As the music crescendos, the footage moves increasingly faster and blurs together.

- "ZN Zero"
- Various footage taken in Tokyo, Japan, including elevators, a homeless man, a surgery, and a busy street.

In the cartoon, Super Barrio faces off against the six enemies of the Mexican people in a wrestling ring: Bud Patriot (representing America), El Official Corrupto (official corruption, represented by a corrupt police officer), Mediatron (a robot representing the spin and hypnotic hold of the media), Las Grandes Corporaciones Unidas (united corporations), Pacheco (a junkie), and, finally, El General (a Mexican general). Additional work on this film was done by Andy Ward
