the OC (1 Viewer)

[Plebeian]

Both mpeg and avi files are compressed, avi is just a better compression technology.

AVI itself is actually typically uncompressed, I think. Before compression with a third-party codec such as DivX, AVI files are extremely large... but the existence of these codecs makes AVI's able to be compressed much more effectively than MPG (incidentally, this is probably why you find mpgs to be terrible quality ... because people have to make them low-resolution in order to keep the filesize down). Which codec do these episodes come in?

Yeah, I actually did mean to say XviD. The O.C. is capped in HDTV and compressed with XviD.

I mentioned this before but didn't get a response, does anyone agree with me that Seth is getting a larger role in this season than Ryan?

The OC is returning on the 1st of February. the 1st episode will be followed by a 1 hour behind the scenes special.

 

[llamalope]

[payafee]

[wanton-wonton]

This is what I gathered from watching Season 2 Preview, a friend sent me.

Spoiler

Marissa is going to start a lesbian relationship with some woman

Spoiler

Apparently, that girl is called Alex Kelly, in Season 2, who is a bisexual.

 

[SoCal]

er... i was kind of expecting a bigger reaction than that.

Well it is not such a big deal because a fair few people have been downloading season two.

evermore - too late

correction: Evermore - It's too late

i was so obsessed with that song and i kept playing it over and over again. now i'm tend to skip it, but i still love it

 

[dogbacon]

Is anyone gonna buy the OC DVD SEASON 1 out on Feb 2??

 

[SoCal]

I was going to but I am not sure if I will anymore.

 

[Althea]

omg omg next tuesday season 2! So quick! I can't wait!
I've seen only first episode...

I LOVE YOU CHANNEL TEN!

I know ! I'm so super-excited - the wait was too long... but I thought it would be longer so you've got to love Channel Ten. Bring on Season Two !

 

[steph@nie]

evermore - too late

That's from the ads. It's not even in the show.. unless I missed something?

Mine is On The Table by AC Newman. It's in the first ep of the 2nd season.

 

[nicko88]

When DOES the second season start? And who here thinks they're gonna be able to watch any episodes because this is year 12, and mustn't waste precious time watching TV when we could be doing some valuable study.

Meh! Fuck that. I'm gonna watch it nonetheless.
