its just a higher quality version of the show, usually about 544p (960x544), compared to 352p (624x352). if you have a normal sdtv (480p) then you probably won't see the difference. |

means half resolution. higher resolution than the 350 mb ones (better picture quality). hr releases would usually also comes with 5.1 ac3 audio. |

hr is half resolution of high definition (1920x1080). you also get 5.1 sound as well as a higher bitrate. well worth downloading if you can spare the bandwidth. |

hr versions are great if you are playing them on a computer - especially with a large widescreen monitor. however no current standalone dvd players can decode them - the frame sizes are too large. anything above 720x576 pixels will require a special player. |

since i do not own an x360, i cannot say for sure if it will, but i know it is capable of full resolution 720p. therefore h(alf)r(es)1080 is definitely within its capability. |

thanks. i know it is capable. i was wondering if it support the codecs used in these releases. (i usually burn a data dvd (with 350mb eps) for my standalone player which doesn't support the codecs for the 700mb eps). or does anyone know of another way to burn these hr 700mb or 720p eps??? |

i have recently got my pc hooked to my 32" hdtv via vga cable. it looks like the hr files are higher quality on my tv which it should be but the sound is very low on a hr file i downloaded which is lost.s03e06.hr.hdtv.ac3.5.1.xvid- nbs. i have the k-lite codec pack 2.77full installed. do i need an additional codec to get the sound to not be so low? not sure if the codec pack i use has the ac3 codec and i thought that if i didnt have the right codec, i would get no sound, not low sound. |

this is a known issue with ac3. the k-lite pack includes an ac3 volume boost option, as i recall. make sure you read to the end of the configuration options when you install, or alternatively run the codec tweak tool in the `k-lite codec pack/configuration` section of your start menu. the 4th checkbox section or so down is "ac3filter boost volume" |
