This program is good for people lacking general tech and codec knowledge; the interface is fairly simple, and in many scenarios will work fine. However, I would spend the time to learn how to use MPEG Streamclip as it can do everything this program does (batch exports, exporting user-set regions, etc.) and more (more output options, demuxing, etc.) at much better quality, and for free. My main reason for abandoning this product is the terrible way it handles deinterlacing: on several PAL sources, after fiddling with every setting possible, the resulting quicktimes were terrible quality: effectively the program was throwing out half of the resolution. I would like to recommend this program because of the simple interface, but on too many occasions I've been burned and gone back to MPEG Streamclip to do it right.
