TROYBOLO  I stumbled on to Road Movie because Subler, essentially a great little free program was creating unreable video files. I got tired of troubleshooting it. Then found Road Movie.

I've been very happy with it.

Before Road Movie I was using 3 different applications in my workflow to convert, add meta data and add chapters. Now I'm down to one app and can do it in batches.

I use it with and without the Turb.264 HD depending on what I need to do and it works well. Speed, even on my previous generation Core Duo 2.0ghz Mac Mini with 2GB ram is very good.

The site/company is also very supportive, responding to questions quickly and with helpful answers.

For a novice it seems very easy to use.

For someone with more experience it has enough flexibility to be a very useful part of the video workflow toolkit.

$25 is extremely reasonable for everything you get.

MARC1970  Simple but works ok. Although presets for psp and Wii doesn't work. They do not play at all.

CPU usage peaks in such a way my Macbook Pro totally hogs the system.

In the end there are other better, free and cheaper solutions for this.

EXISTENZ-78  This is a great app, but what about multi core, multi processor support? old Visualhub vas a way faster.

Also files created from roadmovie has audio track Before the video, also when the source had the video before.

And the psp software don't recognize such made files.

Someone kows a tip for this?

NOVACTAVY_GMAIL.COM  The batch option is great.

If you dont want a .mov file leave out the "add metadata" option.

Great graphic and really user friendly!

LEPPE  Ignore my previous comment please.

I've solved the problem.

Here is some feedback (if someone else should have the same issues)

-First of all, I had the latest version for the Elgato Turbo.264. Version 1.3 is the most recent one (today)!

-Since I own this stick for some time I updated the Elgate software via the build in software update function. I was always up to date this way.

-But it seems there is a "small" problem when you used the build in auto update function from Elgato's software regarding RoadMovie.

-The solution is to manual download the most recent version (today version 1.3) from the Elgato Web site.

-Quit & Trash your current version from the Elgato software, even when it's up to date and version 1.3!

-Install the latest version (today version 1.3). That's simply drag & drop from the image into the Programs folder.

-Launch the new downloaded version from the Elgato software (make sure your Elgato USB stick is attach to your Mac).

-Depending your hardware the Elgato software will launch as before. Or you will guided to the process.

-You can Quit the Elgato software now and you will see that the Elgato Turbo.264 will work again with RoadMovie.

It seems that RoadMovie was the only program that did not worked (on my hardware) with the Elgato software (version 1.3) which was updated with Elgato's build in software update!

The solution is plain simple ;). Dowload the most recent version from the Elgato Web site for your hardware (Turbo.264 & Turbo.264 HD)! Trash the Elgato software you use & install the version you just downloaded. That's it ;).

Many thanks to the 'Support Team" from RoadMovie! They are, as written before, great & very helpful!

I give 5 stars "+" now :-D.

LEPPE  Great program!

But... When they updated to version 1.8.x I lost support for my Elgato Turbo.264!!!

The Turbo.264 works fine in all other programs so there is nothing wrong with the stick.

It seems that the new Elgato Turbo.264 HD works fine with the latest RoadMovie Releases.

It just to bad this issue is not solved yet. This software is so much better then the one from Elgato but now I'm forced to use older RoadMovie releases :(.

I hope this issue will be solved soon. And my Turbo.264 is recogniced again like in Quicktime, Toast, EyeTV,etc.

Never the less my issue, this is a 5 star program!

With regards.

JORDI LLONCH  This is a big application, simple with a great "mac" style.

Also, support from developer it's a must!

SOULSLAVE  subtitles wont appear on my ipod after rendering on roadmovie. they do on itunes though.

and everytime i set on keep current format it comes out .mov

other than that, works great  
(Version 1.4.2)

RIDMAUR  Fabulous tool. I had downloaded all seasons of Boston Legal, found subtitles for it and RoadMovie just easily converted all the AVI's to my AppleTV. Elgato's Turbo.264 is definitely a must with this tool but that is valid for any conversion to Apple's video format.

DOUG S.  I can't find this on the website. Does anyone know if the subs are hard encoded and the video is re-encoded with the subs on top or if it exports a video that can enable and disable subtitles?
