eztv, please pay attention to these complaints. we are downloading elsewhere, and why would we
bother? because the format just doesnt play correctly on a lot of machines. particularly laptops
with onboard video cards
all my hardware plays x264 fine... (even my original xbox that's now over a decade old!)
try www.xbmc.org if you need a media player that can play anything (as far as i can tell).
if you can't connect your current computer to you tv then get a www.raspberrypi.org for us$25,
and that can run xbmc. (it has composite out and hdmi).
i'm all for x264, it reduces file size while increasing quality, what's not to like?!
as for the people that want avi so that there season matches, i get what you mean,
though i still don't mind changing half way through.
i'd be more likely to re-download the earlier episodes in x264 then keep getting the avi's.
