Yes VLC rocks! And yeah I didn't know there was a time you had to get quicktime and itunes together so I just mentioned that one site.

I have to say, that tool looks amazing. I'm completely editor-illiterate (couldn't even make a box room with a tutorial), but I can SEE how this one works. The interface looks great, the tools are easily recognizable, and those sliders integrated with the key frames make it so visual. The more visual it is, the more I'm able to understand it quickly.

Heck, I wanna play with it just to see what crazy effects I could make!

Hmm, these tools are looking really good... Has there been any word on whether the tool package + engine will be sold as middleware yet?

Very nice will by to have those red menu icons, which modify animation curve progress (at top-right side of the following picture).
