ok from the little experiance i've had with "the scene"..
a proper is when there are video or sound issues with a file. (out of sync,
missing scenes, one pass encodes ect ect..)
a repack is when the created file is too large to fit within the "scene" rules.
it depends on the type of file released ( source , length of video and quality )
but the "scene" set limits on the final file size for the shows.
i would have to assume that the previous file was too large / small to fit the
scene rules and a "repack" was ordered.

^^you sure about that?
i thought a repack is when a group fixes their own release, while a proper
occurs when a group fixes another group's release. it has nothing to do with
the reason the file is being propered/repacked. there have been propers when a
video was too big.

to view a repack, you must download it. a repack is another copy of the episode
that has been fixed.

pretty sure a repack is when an episode is uploading in rar format- which is
very unreliable as they often have viruses attached or are fakes. so someone
downloaded it- and then reuploaded the avi file instead of the rar file is
which broken down into pieces. thus it is re-packed....
ok i am an idiot.... :-)
anyways- the episode was pretty weak except for like the last 15 seconds.
hopefully next weeks will be better.

no...a repack is when the group who was nuked, catches the file and fixes it
themselves. you will never see a xor repack for a file that lol has nuked.
