Notes:
This Version of Quantum Break includes all live-action episodes and plays them just like the
original but without any network activity, so you can enjoy the full story without the need
to stream the movies directly from microsoft servers with this version.

Technical notes:
The game isn't just able to play the live-action movies from local storage
without any modification, it actually tries to do exactly that. But the developer/publisher
decided not to include the necessary BINK2 videos in the installation.
So it falls back to online streaming.
Unfortunately the online videos have an intirely different format, so they can't just be
downloaded and put into the game folder. It is also not possible to convert them to BINK2
because the encoder is not freely available.
The way Quantum Break complete edition works is that it intercepts the connection to the
xbox live servers and copies the requested streaming fragments directly from disk to memory.
We decided to include the 1080p high-bitrate versions of the videos of the video files as that
is the most common resolution among gamers.
