TTC VIDEO - Biology - Science of Life (compressed version 4 3GB)

---------------- IMPORTANT UPDATE ---------------- This torrent is outdated. It will be deleted in the future. Get the new one from here: http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5996567/TTC_VIDEO_-_Biology_-_Science_of_Life_%28compressed%29_public Explanations: Initially, I made this torrent private, not knowing exactly I did so (utorrent issue). Now tpb doesn't allow private torrents anymore. So I created a public torrent, copy of this: Sorry for this situation. You should: 1. delete the old private torrent from you client (not the files:P). 2. download the new public torrent 3. open the torrent file with your torrent client. 4. set the path to your old location (it will recognize every file) When you do correctly, the percentage of downloading the torrent will increase rapidly. This being a sign that your client recognized the old physical files. Step 4 could be a little tricky. In my case, I use utorrent. I customized it, so that it downloads first in a temporary directory. Then it moves the files to desired location (in my case label name, ie ttc) So in my case, before downloading the new public torrent, I first move physical old files in temp directory. Then utorrent sees every file. It finishes the verification. Then it moves the files back where they should be. ---------- END UPDATE ---------- TTC VIDEO - Biology - Science of Life - part 1 of 2 Stephen Nowicki http://www.teach12.com/ttcx/coursedesclong2.aspx?cid=1500 One of the greatest scientific feats of our era is the astonishing progress made in understanding the intricate machinery of life. We are living in the most productive phase so far in this quest, as researchers delve ever deeper into the workings of living systems, turning their discoveries into new medical treatments, improved methods of growing food, and innovative new products. "The 21st century will be the century of biological science, just as the 20th century was the century of physical science," predicts Professor Stephen Nowicki, an award-winning teacher at Duke University who has specially adapted his acclaimed introductory biology course for The Teaching Company to bring you up to date on one of the most important fields of knowledge of our time. This intensive, 72-lecture course will give you the background and guidance to explore in depth the fundamental principles of how living things work-principles such as evolution by natural selection, the cellular structure of organisms, the DNA theory of inheritance, and other key ideas that will help you appreciate the marvelous diversity and complexity of life.

It's the best converter/compressor I've used 2. modify settings like this (or cut a little portion of video, then play around): 2.1 codec H264 2.2 set video width X 288 (width/288 must be equal to originalWidth/originalHeight) 2.3 set video bitrate somewhere between 240-270. I set it 240:P I didn't go lower. 2.4 set audio: mp3, audio bitrate 56kbs, sample rate 22050Hz 3. Hit the button:D You should get videos somewhere around 60-90 mb. That's all (of course, then you create a torrent, then upload to tpb:D)

thanks for the course and thanks for the size.

I'm glad it's useful:)

@ mishhh
Dude, what you have been doing is awesome.
These TTC torrents really does not need to be on the 170-200MB levels per course. a compression to 50-60MB levels really saves a lot of internet traffic and waiting time for downloaders.
Please keep up the good work. (compressing and re-releasing TTC torrents, lol)

mishhh (2008-12-11)

Compression was made with VirtualDub, 1/2 Resize Filter (high quality).
I will convert any TTC that I need.
But is not much of a thing to do. VirtualDub is quite easy to use.
Thanks anyway:)

Thanks for compressing these vids brother! There is no need for those raw over sized 14 gig vids in the year 2009.

mishhh (2009-01-22)

olphus2 (2009-07-07)

Is this part 1 of 2 only?

mishhh (2010-02-03)

Thank you for your kind comments:)
I really don't know what's that part 1 of 2...
I wasn't aware, but the course seems really complete to me:).. maybe was a typo there...
Anyway, it can be checked on their site...

magic_phil (2010-07-27)

You're welcome everybody. I'm glad they are useful.

quankers (2011-01-06)

Is there a codec or something I need to install in order to see video? Thanks! They only play as audio files for me.

mishhh (2011-01-14)

K-Lite Codecs are enough
