Is anybody having trouble downloading it? The 1st and 2nd parts downloaded super fast but the 3rd one is stuck at 150kb/sec

Yes, the 3rd part downloaded really slow for me. After the 2nd part, I downloaded the 4th and the 5th part and then I tried the 3rd part again. It downloaded a little bit faster.

Can you please post the info? Bitrate etc.

OK, I thought we covered this, so let me be clear: The bitrate is redundant info. It's just the size divided by the time. That's always the case. So, I don't see a reason to list it.

If you're looking for a way to estimate quality, know that my rips are direct bit-for-bit copies of what's coming out of the TV station. The only way to get higher quality would be to get a copy of the video from before it goes to the TV station -- which we've actually been lucky enough to get, in a few cases (satellite feeds). But I don't have the equipment for that, so this is the best I can do. :)

That's bitrate... what else were you looking for when you said "etc"?

Nevermind, I downloaded the file.

The reason I'm asking is because I found this somewhere else but the file size was 800 MBs smaller, so I was curious why is that. Anyway, yours is better so thank you very much for doing this.

 

By "etc" I meant more info on the file size or format but I didn't notice that you already listed those in the OP.

There are many possible reasons. Someone could've chosen different start and end points... but my edit is pretty tight already, so probably not that. Or, the stations themselves might have encoded it at slightly different rates -- they usually get higher-quality feeds from the network, and reencode them at a lower rate for broadcast. (I think this is true for most U.S. broadcast networks, but not Fox -- they apparently have a way to insert the individual station's logo without reencoding the whole stream, and all Fox affiliates supposedly use the network feed as-is.) There's also the difference between program streams, and transport streams, which are what I post -- transport streams add significant overhead, but they're preferable for complicated reasons I won't go into right now. :)

The length is exactly the same but both files have different logos.

Why do you guys want torrent files? Mega usually provides download speeds that can max out most Internet connections...

 

To the OP: LOVED the high quality on this! Makes me realize how much I'm missing out on my Cablevision TV...

 

I know you said it ended abruptly, but does the credits include any kind of outro? Even if just applause? Feels unfinished and I'd love to have the final bit for my collection :)

The credits just have Kristin Chenoweth plugging "The PBS Arts Fall Festival", then an ad for the DVD, over a generic white background with generic music (not from the show). For me, the least annoying thing was to omit them.
