More details:

I’ve only been planning to do this for a year and a half…
Anyway, it’s done (finally). Didn’t do a 1080p because Zurako has that covered.
This has a higher video bitrate than Coalgirls 720p because I used ordered chapters and lossy audio and the video quality overall is better too.

This release has some audio changes, mainly to make the ED line up properly for each episode with ordered chapters.
Nothing has been removed, I just had to shift the music a bit.
The timing was made to work with Haali Media Splitter and it may not work fluently in VLC and Mplayer (a small stutter).
The other audio change is the OP, because the audio track on the BDs is derpy in every episode I decided to replace it with the TV-size OP from the bonus cd that came with BD vol.5.

Typesetting changes are mainly Zurako, but I also changed a few things. Nothing amazing, but it’s better than the gg TV release.

This release uses ordered chapters for the opening and ending.
The standard versions with credits are the default ones and the creditless versions are in a seperate directory.
You can switch to the creditless versions by moving the current OPs/EDs to another directory and moving the NCOPs/NCEDs into the folder with the episodes. Because the SIDs are the same the NCOPs/NCEDs will also work with the current chapters.
Note: If you have more than one video with the same SID in the same directory ordered chapters won’t work properly. So make sure that you move the files you switch out somewhere else.
