Any chance of getting these episodes in lower quality... like maybe the 300-400 neighborhood? I'm gonna be getting the DVDs whent they come out, so I don't really need them in uber high quality right now... and my DSL slows to a crawl when I have to upload at the same time I'm downloading, like with Bittorrent.

Thanks for the uploads, TRS80. By the way, as the current owner of three CoCos and two Model 100s and former owner of a Model 1 with monitor serial number 00058, I can't help but love your username!

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! I've got HOG downloaded, but have to wait until tonight to watch it. I think it is going to be a long day. It loaded overnight, and usually I'd leave the torrent thing going for an hour after I'm done, but today I've left it open for 5 hours so far. Hope it helps others get the ep. Thanks so much to all the people who are more computer savy than I am and can get these eps. out to us! If it weren't for you smart people, this dummy wouldn't get to enjoy these!
Thank You!

Once I have them downloaded, if I can open them in Quicktime Pro, I can see about making smaller versions and uploading them for folks who don't intend to burn them to VCD.

Once I have them, I'm going to run them through TMPGEnc to take the SVCDs down to VCD so I can watch them on my DVD player.

Okay, finally got "The Message" downloaded, and then uploaded :) Go here:

to download (it's 804 meg, so it may take a few hours.)

I have HoG downloading via BitTorrent and "The Message" from LJC's site. Thanks.
I'm a mac person as well, and I wouldn't use QuickTime Pro for this application. Instead, consider ffmpegX, available from http://homepage.mac.com/major4. It's very fast for VCD, does avi reasonably well, and has DVD/SVCD features also. I use it frequently to make XSVCDs of Buffy, Angel, etc. direct from captured digital source and the results are pretty good.
Finally, I have a DVD burner and some media. I think with a little hacking of the content I should be able to get DVDs made relatively rapidly with DVD Studio Pro, and without Tmpgenc transcoding. Making DVDs from SVCD dubs of middlin' quality VHS tape is a little like choosing the wine to serve with a Big Mac, but it would be nice to be able to watch them in that format, too. So, if TRS80 doesn't mind, I would be willing to sling DVDs at cost to such browncoats as wants them.
