How to Play this DVD on your Computer:
BEST - Cyberlink PowerDVD. http://www.gocyberlink.com/multi/pro...ain_1_ENU.html

It works great and costs $39. (You can also dig it up on the Torrent Sites
if you swing that way.) Just install and register it, and then open
'VIDEO_TS.IFO' to start the DVD.

GREAT - VLC Media Player. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

It's really nice too and it's freeware. A must have if your broke but not
morally bankrupt too. It runs on Windows, Linux and Mac.

Just unzip the files and run vlc.exe. In VCL, Choose File -> Open Directory
and Browse to the VIDEO_TS folder. Once the game is started, choose Video ->
Deinterlace -> Blend to eliminate any horizontal line 'artifacts' you might see.

OK - Media Player Classic. http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...ckage_id=84358

Another Freeware Player. It's ultra fast and small and makes a nice
alternative to Windows Media Player. It does have built-in DVD support
(File -> Open DVD), but I just prefer PowerDVD or VLC Player for DVDs.

Decent - Windows Media Player. http://already.installed.on.your.computer.bloatware

Free and does a decent job with DVDs. The video looks significantly worse on 
both my computers using Windows Media Player 10. It's justreally big and clunky
 and slow. You can buy DVD plug-ins for it but you might as well buy WinDVD if 
you're going to crack open your wallet...


How to Play this DVD on your DVD Player:
1) Verify that your DVD Player supports 480x480 format. Generally speaking,
any DVD player that supports VCD or SVCD will work. Some DVD players
(especially newer or fancier ones) will also handle this. Your DVD player
must also support DVDR DVDs, of course.

There's an unofficial list here:

2) Burn the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders onto the root of the DVDR using
your favorite burning software. Most people seem to prefer Nero, but there
are free programs out there too like CDBurnerXP Pro. Here's a guide for
burning with Nero: http://www.digitalfaq.com/dvdguides/...vd/nerodvd.htm

What to do if your DVD Player can't Play the DVD:
1) Consider purchasing a new DVD player that specifically supports
480x480 format.

2) Hang onto the DVD - Someday you'll have to get a new DVD player, right?

3) Reauthor it. You'll have to reencode it to 720x480 which will
make the size go up and/or the quality go down. The video files are the
same source files I'm working with.

4) Play the DVD on your computer.


Comments:

This is the fifth collector DVD of the 2005 series.  I will be releasing these 
professional quality DVDs for all the Buckeye games from now on.  The quality
of the video is identical to the DirecTV digital broadcast, so you won't find
better quality and compression anywhere.

I have about 50KB of bandwidth that I'm going to try to keep a seed available at 
all times.  With 12 games on the schedule - including the Fiesta Bowl :) - I really
need people to be good about seeding for a REALLY LONG time or else I'll be 
uploading the Fiesta Bowl DVD @ 4KB/sec.  (2KB/sec when we win back to back MNCs)

Want to get involved?  I'm always looking for good highlight videos.  If you want
to make them for the DVD, just PM me and I'll provide my some of my video files 
ahead of time.  I'd love to have 1-3 per DVD :)


Seed Seed Seed!  Please try to seed at least 200% - it's the only way this 
project will work.
