Lobuz: the first ep was 16:9, rest 4:3... believe me, I'd keep it like that if I could. Although tofu pointed out that the op is probably 16:9->4:3... but the rest is definately 4:3. Next, all groups basically use hardsubs, otherwise it'd be too easy for lamer groups to steal subs... and believe me, many groups would, hardsubs are just a standard in fansubs. The same goes for mp3, we realize there are better audio codecs, like aac and such, just mp3 is the standard right now, hopefully that'll soon change. As for container, hopefully we'll soon change to matroska too. The reason we haven't really is just for ease, most leechers don't understand diddly. Last with distro, we have a few main ways to distro. The most popular is bt, than xdcc bots in the chan, and last newsgroups. Im sure the files eventually make their way to emule or whatever, but really we don't feel like putting it on there ourselves. The best way to get a file is within a few days of release getting it off an xdcc bot, or like 10 hours after a release on bt, you can get nice speeds either way. Im just rambling on now, but anyway, if you have any questions ... I might have logical answers... and again with the codec/container thing... it's just a standard atm, hopefully things will change soon as matroska and aac and such become more stable, popular, etc... much as what happened with xvid.
