Am I wrong, or is this app not capable of converting to any formats other than .mpg or editable formats like .dv? It cannot convert a DVD or any other type of movie file to H.264 .mp4/.mkv, or .avi (which sucks anyway), or Flash, or QuickTime, etc.?

The splitting of this app into 2 different output 'modules' — Editing and Broadcasting — has always annoyed me. These functional categorizations are not organic, and no other apps use such distinctions. I like to have all of an app's capabilities available to me all the time so I can select the one I want without having to search through its weird modules to find it. And if I complete one function and want to use a completely different one, I don't want to then search through the modules again to find it. And it's particularly frustrating that there's no easy way to go back and select between the two modules (at least none that I can discern, since the icons make no sense). Maybe that's why I have used this a total of perhaps 5 times since getting a 1.6 license several years ago, and I actually encoded files with it only twice because I got frustrated and switched to another program the other 3 times. Unfortunately, the new version continues with the Editing and Broadcasting organizational scheme, so I won't be updating my license for this new version.

The app is not "abandonware", but the old 1.6 version is ;-) The final 2.0 version will come soon, a beta is available onto the site. The 2.0 version is -of course- compliant with OSX: Mountain Lion (10.8), Lion (10.7), Snow Leopard (10.6) and Leopard (10.5) …and compliant with old computer PPC (on Mac Os X 10.5) too. good videos
