Vuk just messaged me. But first, the back story - someone in his building has been connecting up to the central antenna with faulty equipment that is backfeeding into his reciever. Simply put, it's screwing up his digital reciever. So...

I don´t mind the delay, however a big thumb up for Vuk putting down money and time just so we all can enjoy the episodes.

OT: Those chat logs, looks like they are form irc, are you having some kind of Top Gear channel? If not, why not start one=)?

Nah, it'll still be XviD AFAIK, but not as perfect as usual. It'll still be quite good though.

Overheat mentioned that it doesn't look like it's going to be reairing tonight due to some British sport, but I've got a 700 MB rip of the episode. That's a bit much for an hour long TV show in my opinion, so he'll be re-encoding it to the normal size for me today. 8)

Look what I wrote Tuesday Nov 16th:

"Noticed that the last two weeks a rip was made from the rerun on Monday. But the following episode doesn't rerun because of snooker. Just wanted to make sure that you know."

Guess no one reads my posts. images/smilies/tongue.gif

Can we have two torrents - one of the 700mb file and one of the re-encoded smaller file?

It would be nice to see one episode in better quality.
