the Greeks Crucible of Civilazation pt 2 (reseed)

The Greeks: Crucible of Civilazation Part 2 of 3 Part 2 - The Golden Age. This part looks at the war with Persia and the effects of democracy. Note: for all those interested in more details on the battles, weapons and statistics, i highly recommend the documentary at'last stand of the 300' History channel. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Greeks - Classical Greece of the 4th and 5th centuries, B.C. was a magnificent civilization that laid the foundations for modern science, politics, warfare, and philosophy, and produced some of the most breathtaking art and architecture the world has ever known. Through the eyes and words of the great heroes of ancient Greece, this dazzling production charts the rise, triumph, and eventual decline of the world's first democracy. Now, through dramatic storytelling and state-of-the-art computer animation, you witness history, art, and government with giants like Pericles, Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. for more info goto http://www.pbs.org/empires/thegreeks/htmlver/index.html Title: Empires - The Greeks: Crucible of Civilization Director: Cassian Harrison Actor: Liam Neeson Release: 2001-02-13 Specs.

From my limited research, i believe that H264 is approximately 40% more efficient than Divx/Xvid - which means better quality. MKV i believe allows for surround sound, whereas avi is only stereo, however this file is in stereo. if anyone has troubles playing the file, install the K-lite codec pack and play the file using 'The KMPlayer', imo the best media player - (it plays files which are not even 100% complete).
