CHOWDER - The complete series

This is the complete series of "Chowder" from Cartoon Network.  Most of these were captured off of digital cable or satellite, however, ten episodes were ripped from DVD.  All episodes are high quality, progressive 23.976 fps, and full resolution (at least 640x480).  Some episodes are widescreen, including all of season-3.  When possible, the credits featuring puppets were included.  These sections were captured off the web.

Here are the specifics (for those who care):

The first half of season-1 (episodes 1-10) are DVD rips.  They are 720x480 (anamorphic) widescreen.  
The rest of season-1 (episodes 11-20) through most of season-2 (episodes 1-18) were captured from digital cable using a TACB digital cable tuner box connected via s-video to a Philips DVD recorder.  They were made progressive using a custom AviSynth script.  Finally, they were Xvid encoded at 640x480.  Even though these episodes are from digital cable, they were not HD, so the "Available in HD" banner appears at the beginning of the episode.

The final two episodes from season-2 (episodes 19 and 20) through all of season-3 were captured from digital satellite using the satellite tuner/DVR connected to a JVC DVD recorder.  The resulting recordings were 720x480 anamorphic widescreen.  They were made progressive using a custom AviSynth script.  Occasionally, the opening was shown in a letterbox; this was corrected with a crop and resize.  Finally, they were Xvid encoded at 848x480.  

Sometime into season-2 Cartoon Network starting splitting up the episodes, airing one of the two cartoons at a time with a generic (the blue weiner) opening.  Several days later, they would air the two cartoons together with the correct opening.  These are the recordings I would use.

After the final episode aired, I continued recording episodes from Cartoon Network HD in hopes of finding more widescreen episodes but no more have shown up.  As a bonus I've also included three "Spot the Block" ads.  The "Nutrients" one had to be downloaded from the web.
