Sound was slightly out of sync for me, but not enough to worry. Video quality looked great though. Hopefully we'll pick up a balance of seeders over the next few hours... I'm still pushing >3megabytes/sec. Popular stuff.

The video quality is REALLY good, when i am full screen.. but the Audio looks a bit ogg sync.
just as an FYI, i have also dled the other top gear so i will compare more to see the audio if its just me or what.
it hasnt been correctly synced... i have the same problem, and my other Xvid do play synced.
I think it has to do with the recording trouble... near the end there is another small skip and off-sync sound gets worse images/smilies/wink.gif
LOL sorry i guess you will have to live with that.

if you read viper's end reply you will know why it happend, anyway its fixed now, recorded FG today without any problems.

Damn. I just watched it and it was horribly jumping everywhere. The image quality is really good. I'ma go update my codecs but at the moment it's damn near unwatchable. Guess I gotta sacrifice this episode. images/smilies/sad.gif

That rip looked fantastic VUK, good episode too, but I would have liked to see a dry lap from the Viper.
