Unclear if this notes application can be synced with a portable device like an iPod or iPhone (I personally reckon this capability is the minimum bar for such an application these days).

That's odd - I've had version 5.01 since November 29, 2011 and here it is being announced on MacUpdate January 2, 2012.

Sigh - I keep eyeing off these new releases and, despite the comment by Yappa a couple years ago, I *still* can't figure out how to install this. The amount of documentation associated with this Samba package is positively daunting and it clearly implies a high degree of unix command line geekery. Take a read of all of the reviews and comments posted here (which go back to 2004) - NOT ONE comment is by anybody who has successfully installed this on a Mac, and that in itself makes a sobering statement. If anybody out there has installed this I would greatly appreciate your feedback and, more importantly, any helpful instructions. Does an installation script exist?

I originally posted this in the troubleshooting tab, but figured most people don't browse that. I'm always interested to read if an application is one of those crash or lockup on run affairs:

Downloaded this from the developer's website and couldn't get it to work. It briefly brought up a couple small malformed windows before yielding the main screen, and then a sheet was produced explaining that a demo period was in effect and it had a couple buttons for yes/no asking to buy it. I clicked on No because I wanted to try it and it didn't respond! It needed force quitting. Tried again, same deal. This is not ready for prime time yet...

Oh heck! I purchased v2.0 at Christmas and spent my ENTIRE 2 week vacation and all my spare time since ripping my dvd collection onto hard drives in main movie only mode - that's about 700 movies and 4TB, and I'm only half way through. Now I see that v2.01 is out and I read:

Fixed repeated chunks in main movie only mode for certain DVDs.

So now what? There's no mention at all on the developer's website as to what those "certain DVDs" are, and there's no script in the new version to fix the malformed movies. I'm respectfully asking the developer to respond to this concern so all affected users of this software know what's happened to them and what their options are.
