Thanks for the release. After seeing the 1080p version on a HDTV at my friend’s house (i don’t own one myself, sadly) i must say i’m amazed :O
One thing though, i am aware you are using Eclipse’s subs, but the OP lyrics are kinda inconsistent… I mean, in the whole song lyrics, it is assumed it is sung in first person (“I won’t say ‘thank you'”, “I embrace them…” etc etc, then it suddenly jumps to 3rd person: “She already knows the strength it takes to smile till the end”. It doesn’t make sense to me, since if you listen to the full version of the song, it becomes even more clear that the lyrics are indeed written in 1st person perspective!
It’s really a minor detail for most i guess, but it does spoil the fun of a “perfect” release for me. Just my 2 cents.
The 1080p is native Blu Ray resolution and FLAC audio (lossless). It’s as if you went out and bought the disk yourself. The 720p is a downscale, and the 720p has AC3 audio, which is lossy. 720p are for ppl whose machines aren’t good enough to handle 1080p smoothly.
Well I have a download of 50kbps ='(
But I’ll grab the 1080p, just because I’m crazy like that. 🙂
Also, anyone know a good way to play this on a weak computer? I play it fine on my computer but the computer I have hooked up to the 1080p HDTV isn’t exactly the best, and my monitor is only 1280×1024.
And I’m a bit too lazy to move the computer just to watch this.
One of my rigs is a P4 @ 2.0 GHz (singlecore) with a 64mb GPU running xUbuntu linux and it’s still capable of flawlessly playing 720p.
So you should be allright playing 1080p on a core 2 duo, provided you use the right setup. (That is: xUbuntu Linux + VLC). But that’d probably take more work than simply moving the pc.
If you really really want to play it on the tv without moving your pc, you could also reencode it to 720p resolution using Avidemux, but that’d take a while (~30 mins on a dualcore, ~10 mins on an i7).
My singlecore Athlon XP 2000+ w/ a GeForce 7600GT can play 1080p w/o softsubs fine, my laptop w/ C2D 2.0GHz and 8600m GT can play 1080p w/ softsubs without any problems. Thanks to CoreAVC 2.0 + CUDA

Thanks for another release.
One thing I’ve been wanting to know is that is there any real reason to get 1080p over 720p?
Sorry if this has been asked before.
The 1080p is native Blu Ray resolution and FLAC audio (lossless). It’s as if you went out and bought the disk yourself. The 720p is a downscale, and the 720p has AC3 audio, which is lossy. 720p are for ppl whose machines aren’t good enough to handle 1080p smoothly.
Or thos who have a bandwith of 1mbps and a download limit of 25 GB/month
*sobs*

@Jeffrey
try CCCP + CoreAVC 2
Is anyone downloading the 480p?
@mc
Notice I said weak computer
By that I mean a dual core 2 Ghz or so.
So yeah, probably won’t work.
i’m using amd64 x2 3600 (2ghz) and it works

@Jeffrey: You call a 2GHz C2D weak? lol
