I was just wondering, do the 700 megabyte episodes have a better quality compared to VUK's 300 megabyte rips?

To be honest, as much as I appreciate what they do, they aren't the most flawless TV rips... I'm just wondering which is better.
 
The 700MB one has less flaws i guess you could say, but imo, it's not worth double the size. :)
Download one and check it out.
 
I did... but I couldn't tell! :D

It's not really worth the size difference, but then again, doesn't take much longer to download, and I don't have a space problem.

Is it just because VUK's is in DivX (or is it xViD?) and the larger ones are just regular WMV?
 
Both are Xvid...

And actually, I can tell the difference... Hence, why I dl the 700 MB as well...

Off course the quality isn't twice as good, but overall (I got a good monitor... and the TV is bigger, you notice it as well...)

I honestly did try, but I couldn't fine anything. I'd appreciate a link...

My concern is... I can only find big rips for the recent episodes. It's mostly VUK's old rip from previous seasons that have pretty bad quality.
 
Nobody? I'm just wondering why some of the episodes are of such low quality... and how come some are ripped by VUK and some are ripped by Viper007?
 
None are ripped by Viper007Bond, he's in the USA, the older eps are poor quality because that's when he first started encoding, you get better as you have more practice. Older eps are being re-captured on BBC Prime however and ripped in the 350MB format. LOTS can be found on eMule. :)
 
Thanks... ;)

The reason I am wondering is because some of them have titlecards that say ripped by VUK or Viper007Bond, and some of them have none.

Somebody should make a sticky of all rips available on the internet.
 
The 700MB is technically better, especially in the audio department, but that's because they have twice the space to work with. Vuk's rips are near enough to the 700MB ones for me. :)
