| 60MB episodes? Must be for a cellphone or sth. |
 |
| "SD" episodes will typically be 150-250Mb in MKV or AVI alike. Going lower than 150 is possible with 264, softsubs and ordered chapters, though most encoders prefer giving more juice to the video. Why is it hard to find? Pretty much all groups release MKV these days, and many do SD as well as HD releases. 60Mb is going to be terribly low bitrate and no self respecting encoder would ever go that low, only RMVB idiotic reencoders, typically. If you want guaranteed ~200Mb files, I'd suggest sticking with SD releases, even if they're AVI reencodes from groups that don't do SD anymore. As undesirable as SD is, if you want to save bandwidth/space, it's your only real option. |
| They're not idiotic... rmvb has its niche, it's useful for some people. |
|
| I'd agree... RMVB lets me download anime series in hours instead of days... especially if they're 100+ episodes like yuyu hakusho... If I downloaded that in MKV format I'd still be downloading that today instead of having finished it a month ago... |
| rmvb What is this shit you're watching? |
| I guess people who like RMVB love their anime in really shitty quality. |

I tryed to but it didnt work ;_; when you have the veoh web downloader you can download it in AVI instead using realplayer and downloading it in RMVB http://www.veoh.com/download havent tryed this yet, dunno if it downloads fast |

| Uhm, I'll stick with 720p and 1080p, kthnx. But seriously, if space is really that much of an issue, going less than 170 MB is pretty much a no-no, and that's if it's Xvid. the other alternative already mentioned is ordered chapters; it's actually pretty good, as you don't download the opening and ending every time, but it hasn't been really popular for some reason. |

| Can't find mkv? where the hell are you looking? Mkv is all but unavoidable. If you are looking for anime I advise you start with animesuki and go from there. 60 megs? I wouldn't waste my time with anything that lousy. New mkv Kampfer files for instance are in the 200 meg range. And I wouldn't watch it on anything that needed the files that small. |
| While not technically anime, currently I am a big fan of Hatsune Miku. At least I can go see her in concert. |

| Stop dissing RMVB i watched gurren lagaan in that file format and i dont care! |

| I use to watch RMVB because I can find them if I'm looking for old anime shows that has finished airing (through a site that hosts anime episodes in RMVB). RMVB is good if you want to download anime from direct-download sites like MegaUpload or stupid RapidShare because of the small filesizes. I used to do that, but it's a real pain in the ass because if you're downloading a whole show, you're constantly opening up a lot of tabs for each episode on MegaUpload and you're downloading one episode after another. MKV on the other hand is high quality and you can disable subtitles when you want to take a screenshot. I take a lot of screenshots when I'm watching anime to post them on my blog. MKV is the most used format for anime episodes and you can find most of them through anime torrent sites. |
| 70MB rmvb has a watchable quality unless there are lot of action scenes and/or smoke and dust. I've seen dozens of series in rmvb and in most cases it was enough. |

I used to do that, but it's a real pain in the ass because if you're downloading a whole show, you're constantly opening up a lot of tabs for each episode on MegaUpload and you're downloading one episode after another. There's a program called Jdownloader, and you just have to copy the links and it queues up the files for download. It's extremely useful for Direct Download and you can put a few series up go to sleep and they'll be done by the time you get up. It's also useful when downloading Xbox 360 games, I really can't be bothered opening up 70 tabs and waiting for each file to finish. |

That's like saying that it's passable quality as long as nothing is going on. Maybe rmvb looks fine on a smaller screen, but on a 22" monitor it looks like complete crap. |

vytah said: 70MB rmvb has a watchable quality unless there are lot of action scenes and/or smoke and dust. I've seen dozens of series in rmvb and in most cases it was enough. I'd say it depends heavily on the kind of show you're watching. A talking heads show... RMVB is fine. A high-budget action show, assuredly not. Drunk_Samurai said: RMVB will always be shit. It's even worst than AVI. As long as there is demand for a particular container, who the hell are you to scold people for making it? |

| I prefer AVIs because I know they'll run properly on my computer. MKVs are just a pain. Only one of my players will play them properly, and it's always a gamble. Never played RMVB. I don't think I have anything that will work with that format. |

CCCP is a codec pack that just about allows you to play anything on your media player of choice, in quality that is generally superior to that of videos decoded using VLC. But you're right, it doesn't work on Linux. I managed to play my stuff on Ubuntu by installing all the extensions and optional codecs for MPlayer (found them by digging through the help files). Maybe you could give that a shot? |

I actually have an easier time playing mkvs on linux on mplayer than I did with VLC and the CCCP pack. I guess me and MKVs are fated never to be. |

| rmbv is watchable, but I only dl it if I can't find it in any other format. Btw, I can't dl torrents - think there's some kind of firewall-ish thing that I can't get around. Btw, if I may steal a bit of this thread, what is Mini MKV? All my Darker Than Black eps are MINI MKV, good quality and only takes about 6 minutes to download. Where do I find more? |
