thanks for the up... nice to see this show on eztv at the same time as the other
indexers.

on a side note, i downloaded the first few eps from mininova (non-scene
(ipodnova, i i r c). they were encoded in h.264, and they looked just as
good, yet they were half the size. it's amazing what that codec can do! however,
it's also amazing how many resources it uses!! ☹️

h.264 is am amazing codec no doubts - full dvd quality movie (2 hours) in 600mb,
when your avaerage half quality is about 700mb (divx/xvid).

problem is as you said, its a resource hog - practically unusable unless you
have a dual-core.

*practically unusable at hd resolutions 😉

i run a pc with an amd athlon xp 3200+, 1 gb single channel ddr 333 sdram, and
via unichrome (non-pro) integrated gfx, and i can play ed (480p) video and even
most 720p video (with the help of software such as coreavc) just fine. however,
i'd need one of those new radeon hd (agp) gfx cards to play 720p and/or 1080p
video via hardware only.

amd x2 4200+ clocked at 2.75, 2gb 2(2x512 dual chan) ram and i can play 720p
absoltuly fine - 1080p on the otherhand sometimes proove a little difficult if
i have other things running.
