Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Ah, well Windows DVD maker won't be a useful suggestion. I have a ppc iMac too, but I never use it so unfortunately I can't really help.

It's frustrating. I downloaded Squared 5, which is supposed to serve this function. It took a really long time to 'convert' the first episode of Syfy's Alice. The result was 45 minutes of black screen. Ergh.

Javachik, if you email me the high res version of the photo, I can take that out for you.

Deena, you're so kind. I shall. Thanks!

Some DVD players can handle CD's with .avi files on them. Trying putting in a blank CD or DVD, dropping the movie file on it and burning it that way.

All is well that ends in pizza.

The second is the outdated URL, le nubian. [link] is the "current" one, AFAIK.

I don't see how Flash can survive if browsers will soon be able to support the same functionality natively.

I don't think it will (which is a good thing), but it could take awhile to shake out while legacy browsers are still the most common. How long has IE6 been the bane of web designers?
