Just downloaded it and encoded a clip. I chose one of the presets for braodband and the results aren't as good as QT but I guess I'll have to learn how to tweak the settings like I did in QT. QT is still better than wmv9 though.

*sigh* and I just spent $99 two weeks ago on Flip4Mac's version of this. Oh well.

I just bought Flip4Mac's two days ago. I guess it seemed like a valuable tool for $100 though, so what can you do. I sure hope that Flip4Mac upgrades with some nice features to be competitive with that price!

Thanks Craig! Hey, I casually installed my WMV software on my laptop as an afterthought, but then realized I really needed it on my tower; however, I appear to have exceeded my installations. Is there any way to manage this (I thought I saw something in the Flip4Mac forums about converting from the demo to full version without having to be online, but then I couldn't find that info again).
thanks...

Have done the free upgrade from WMV Export to WMV Studio, after watching the demo at NAB. I'm now opening WMV's in a Quicktime player right in Safari, which is absolutely genius. They look great and it's wonderful to be able to navigate around the clip. Now I'm definitely happy I bought Flip4Mac.
