    Its great that its free and multi-platform and supports H.264 encoding and many options, but maybe it should support more formats and codecs.

    well this failed miserably. couldnt get past selecting the source and scanning then it kept crashing on win7. tried compatibility mode with no success. then it wouldnt scan anything no matter how many times i pointed it to the dvd. huge fail, looks great but again HUGE FAIL.

    Can someone please recommend a link for a walkthrough to how to use this program on a mac? I uploaded a DVD correctly, i believe, but I cannot figure out how to play it through my itunes or if there is another program I can play it through. Thanks!
