I just downloaded the files last night and used nero vision to burn a dvd and it works just fine on my dvd player. very nice quality. thanks for your hard work 2arms2legs.

 

Whoever encoded the Florida game should encode EVERY game...Jesus christ that good of quality in 2 Gigs?

 

he won't be doing this week's game unfortunately. The reason it turned out so good is because it was a CBS game, meaning that if you have an HD antenna you could capture the true HD stream from the over the air broadcast. Most cable companies encrypt the HD channels they broadcast (such as ESPN HD) so those games are usually transferred via a cable box through an S-video cable (S-video doesn't have near enough bandwidth for uncompressed HD content). Some cable cos don't encrypt those basic HD channels but you have to have a card that can tune QAM (as opposed to ATSC for over the air) in order to capture them and cards that do that are a bit rare. You can't simply hook up the HDMI or DVI cable from the cable box to a capture card because those carry a compressed digital HD signal that requires an HDCP device on the other end to decrypt and display the signal (no one makes cards to do that for legal reasons). The only other alternative is to get HD from the box via the component (Y, Pb, etc...) cables but those carry uncompressed HD video and there are very few cards in existence for that and they cost in the thousands as they aren't meant for Joe Blow to capture his favorite team's football games in HD.

So the cleaner and better the original capture the easier it is to compress and keep good quality. Hopefully the CBS game with kentucky will work out but I'm not sure.

 

What DVR do you have? Cox?
