Nope, NBC in Green Bay.  Thankfully my CW here is rock solid, I heart
Veronica Mars. :)

Yeah, I've been more on the not caring too much end of the spectrum -
I was just happy to get encoding to AVI from Myth working at all
(especially 720p - thanks for your hr hdtv scripts, I never would have
figured it out).  Maybe one day I'll try and find the optimal
settings, but since x264 looks so beautiful I'm pretty complacent.
