[DONE] Wanted: Green AVT-8710

In need of a new TBC as current one is playing up. Heard these were the best one to get, so hoping someone out there has one in full working condition.

You can actually get VP9 quality with a minimum resolution of 1152p.

So 1536×1152 for 4:3, and 2048×1152 for 16:9.
