That is good to hear. I have a similar setup, where I encoded the 
recorded stuff.

What makes me really wonder is the number of downloads. The 2.0.0 
Release has been downloaded about 16788 times since the release at the 
19th June 2011. That are about 33 Downloads per day ! From Sourceforge 
and it's mirrors. And the mingw build and the tar.gz files are the once 
with the most downloads.

I think there are not much working card this days. The Zoran Chipset was 
introduced in 1996, that is a long time ago.
