CEBE I've been using this most useful app for several years. It never failed. I can recommend it to everybody, even to "beginners" as the developer is most helpful answering all kinds of questions about usage. (Version 4.2) | |

ROBOTANK I picked this up on the MU Promo and I'm very impressed. It works precisely as advertised and has a very easy to use interface. In addition, the developer was very helpful and quick to respond to my support request. Highly recommended. (Version 4.2.1) | |

BBASILICO I bought and downloaded but I could not get to work out of the box... It was my bad for not having the right Quicktime set-up. The Developer was more than helpful with getting it up and running. I have a couple other shareware programs for DVD work but this is my new favorite! Worth the $25 and then some! (Version 4.2) | |

NORIKER I'm having huge problems getting this app to do anything but hang up. Can you tell me what you changed about your QT setup? I can view MPEG2 videos without any problem. No matter if I want to export from MPEG1 or MPEG2 to QT or from anything to MPEG2 it always crashes. My computer is fast enough. (Version 4.2.1.1) | |

FRINGEWOOD Worth ten times as much, one of the best shareware deals available today, and an absolute must for all serious video users on the Mac platform. It's also got a lot of new features that are beginner friendly. No question about it, it's a must have. (Version 4.2) | |

SVETO This thing rocks! It is UB and optimized for the intel chips. What else can I say, it just works. I had a small issue since I was a bit lazy to read the manual, but the author is very helpful. Just a small mail to SERBIAN and I was back on schedule. Very necesary utility if you need MPEG conversions. (Version 4.1.3) | |

XJSMITH as the previous poster noted i too was concerned about the limited nature of the demo, but after email contact with the courteous and knowledgeable developer mr. serbian i took a chance and bought the app. i am truly impressed, it is an outstanding addition to my video tool kit. it has taken every type of conversion i have thrown at it and produced excellent results. the encoding process is at least 3 times faster than ivcd and approximates the length of your input file. for example a 65 min .mov project took 75 min to convert to mpeg2 and a few more minutes to burn. quality was almost at the level of a store bought dvd. very little pixelation or blocky stuttering. audio/video mix very smooth. extremely easy for the newbie to mac and video conversion to use. one-click dvd works flawlessly. countless options for the more fluent videophile to explore. customer support the best i have encountered on the web. help is just an email and seemingly a few minutes away. put your worries to rest on the limited demo and try the full package. you will be happy you did. 5 STARS (Version 4.2.2) | |
