Hi, iv just come accross this file on a tracker, but I dont understand how its possible that it has a bitrate of 22mbps, uncless it was broadcasted on ABC at that bitrate!?! AFAIK no one broadcasts over the air in those bitrates!!
Someone shed some light on this!
Well obviously they do. Also the NCAA Final 4 game was broadcasted at 33mbps. OTA signals are higher than Cable/Satellite usually, so this was likely an OTA or even FIOS cap.
My 2 cents
C-Band
What does that mean?Quote:

Because they are encoded by the scene with shitty rushed settings so they can race other groups. Plus that is a capture of the original uplink feed not an encode. Thats what the local broadcast stations receive and then encode to MPEG-2 for distributionQuote:

So its not an encode... how did ctrlhd get thier hands on the 'original uplink feed' before it was distributed in mpeg-2?Quote:
