Here are the rapidshare links. Use 7zip http://www.7-zip.org/ as usual to extract the files. If you do not have a premium account just put the links in JDownloader http://jdownloader.org/ and let it do the hard work for you. Probably not faster than using bittorrent but works across firewalls.
Updates on Atom decoding.
Now I’m able to watch the videos with no issues. My guess is that I messed up with the ring filter options for H.264 or maybe it was just the video driver (or there’s something that has changed in video encoding?).
In any case I can watch the games on my aspire one now (under linux using SMPlayer).
@raptormage: actually I can watch games in my bed to help me fall asleep. I could not drive and watch games, I’m in Italy and I have to drive through city traffic for my home-office route. When I lived in Connecticut I guess I could have done it. When you’re used to the chaotic Italian traffic jam driving a car in north America looks like a relaxing pastime (with the notable exception of Manhattan at night).
@raptormage: Not that I meant to be serious. But I have to admit that after some of the Raps games I really need to watch the Rockets to reconciliate myself with concepts like “team effort”…

Ever thought about adding these to an nzb site such as nzbmatrix? The download speeds are infinitely faster. That would be awesome.

Yes but the people with access to good news servers are much fewer in number than those who can get the games with bittorrent.
That said, if anyone uploads these games on usenet, I’ll add nzb links to these posts.

There have been changes to the encoding process that should’ve made playback more CPU intensive if anything.
Congrats on getting it working. I’m guessing this means watching Raptor games while driving?

I was being facetious but it’s good to know the Raps’ play has gotten to the point where it induces sleep.
