Hi,
Here you can download the latest beta version of The FilmMachine:
Installation notes for version 1.6.0.14 beta:
You must have DirectX 9 installed on your computer because all audio is converted/extracted with DirectShow filters.
If you want to convert DV files you should install the Panasonic DV Codec.
I you have other questions first read the manual (made by Convertjosh from Film-Torrents.nl in Dutch but translated to English).
HISTORY:
At the moment I am rewriting the DVD Authoring feature but this takes a lot of time. I already created a Timeline (like in programs as Adobe and Ulead) where you can manually create chapters for the DVD menu. If you want to see a picture look here.
