not to be a dick, but codec packs usually hurt more than they help. all you really need is an mkv splitter, such as haali's media splitter, which also supports mp4 files and ogm. |

big thanks for the 720p! look, i am sorry if: 1) you are too stupid to figure out how to use google 2) you are too poor to afford a decent tv or computer 3) live in a country with limited internet (i am very sorry for you there, maybe some legislative action you can take?) 4) are jealous of those of us who aren't 1-3 but 1) no one is forcing you to download these. 2) no one is forcing you to use eztv. so stop bitching! there are many of us who aren't 1-3 and we don't bitch about the low quality 350mb rips (which i only get if my nntp provider purges too fast or the show is of the ugly betty variety) so stfu! this is directed at the 3rd or 4th poster and their ilk. not anyone else who is looking for legitimate help. |

in deed... so someone with about 200 seasons of tv show that makes 1200 discs, whereas the smaller versions make about 200 discs. 6 discs is enough for 3 seasons of 24! if you want high quality, buy the dvds! |

dvd-r or dvd+r are so inexpensive you can buy a 100 spindle for $20 of ridata (a great brand). 4 720p eps per dvd is awesome! as for playing them just get the latest version of ffdshow it is free and works great. no need to spend money on coreavc. get the latest generic build here sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=173941 also you get all the other codec formats with ffdshow and other very cool features like auto normalize audio and lots of great post processing filters. really is the best all around decoder of video/audio getting the haali media splitter is a good idea also. as for a standalone that does not need any codec installed. go vlc. vlc plays them fine also and navigates fine. you just have to make sure you have the latest version which is 0.8.6a. heck i can play live hdtv at 1920 x 1080 fine in vlc so playing x264 720p is cake. btw - yes coreavc is the fastest at the moment. it plays via software only about 15% faster than ffdshow so if you have an older box get that and it is on torrent sites if you truly truly can't afford the price. |

standard 350mb releases were released by eztv some weeks ago as dvd rips. |

i know that abennett, but i was asking about the hdtv ones. xor ripped the first two episodes, i was wondering if they - or some other group - ripped the other two. isn't it true that in most cases the preair doesn't match the aired version? |

the dvdrips aren't preair, they are from official retail dvds. fox released the first 4 eps on dvd one day after they aired and since they usually ship them to retailers around 2 weeks before the streetdate we got the rips before they aired. and the dvdrips are superior quality to the hdtv rips because groups rush those releases without any regard to quality. an example: the xor release of episode 2 is missing almost a minute of footage because they rushed the editing. if anyone wants to check, compare hdtv to dvd at around 32:15 minutes. |

personally i love these releases. the download time sucks, but if i'm going to collect all the episodes high quality is very much worth it!! |
