EXISTING VERSIONS
23,000 complete downloads, about 140 TB served.
HQ VERSION
I hope to try to create the HQ 720p version this weekend or maybe next weekend (but no promises). I'm in the process of reconverting the original files, and I purchased a copy of Sony Vegas since my trial was expiring.
This version will have no editing changes; just uncompressed audio and a higher video bitrate. It will still be split into three parts, and it will only be available as a torrent.
DVD VERSION
I have no plans to make a DVD version, as I don't want to go down the nightmare of DVD authoring. But I think a lot of people would appreciate one.
So if anybody else is up to trying, I'll be happy to post a torrent link or even host the ISO on my site and make it the "official" DVD for my edit. I believe you should be able to use the medium-quality 720p release and convert it to DVD size for DVD-quality results (I'm not sure if the low-quality one is quite high-quality enough). Another fan was already working on some DVD liner art -- I'm not sure of the status, but if someone wants to start a DVD project I'll email him and find out.
TANGENT: VICTORIA & SACRAMENTO
(I kind of don't want to go here because I don't want to sound like I'm tooting my own horn, but I feel like I should just in case. So my apologies...)
I should be getting my hands on the Victora & Sacramento footage soon. However, I do not have any interest in making multi-show videos (I like a "realistic" style that tries to stay as true as possible to "this is what happened" ) .
At this time I do not have any plans to make Victoria-only or Sacramento-only edits either, since I assume other editors have sufficiently covered those shows. If there was some kind of widespread critical consensus that people liked my edits more I would reconsider that, but I honestly can't imagine that's true. (Positive comments on my edit are always appreciated, but I know pretty much all the edits are getting positive comments.) However, if, inexplicably, there actually is such a critical consensus, somebody should definitely tell me.
