    "Despite criticisms, it runs in Windows 7!"

    July 30, 2011  |   By DoubledColumn

    Pros

    I've seen alot lately that this will not even start in Windows 7 or even Windows Vista. If you run it in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2 it runs well after requiring you to run as administer. Haven't really used it much as I just installed it.

    Cons

    Doesn't appear to have a very good UI, but I love to play with hard-to-understand software.

    Summary

    Loads video files fine, contrary to other reviews I've heard. Perhaps everybody's problem is they haven't tried running in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2. This is an old program that is no longer being developed as of 2009 (according to Wikipedia and the fact that their homepage is down). Naturally I figured compatibility mode would be necessary and was happy to see it load after I encountered a .dll error as noted by another reviewer above running it normally and in compatibility with Windows Vista. I haven't used it beyond simple glance at the features and loading a .mov file, but it did that fine so I think it will work 100%. Really looks professional for a freebie.
