Olympic Synchronised Swimming - Pairs Free Routine


This is the Free Routine in the final of pairs synchronised swimming.

Synchronised swimming is very under-represented in the BBC's Olympics coverage. This is
the only event to be televised on Freeview, and there is only one other event that will appear
on the BBC's satellite/cable channels.

It is quite hard to make a good cap of this sport. Images of splashing water do not compress
at all well under MPEG-2 (the Freeview source) or under XviD. This is why this file's overall
bit rate is about 50% higher than most of the other Olympics torrents. I also set the minimum
XviD quantiser to 6, to preserve bit rate for where it's really needed.
