Ok, time to set some things straight here.
start war , put out fires, in my opinion ch3vron like's to kick the legs out from under people... just because you have been assisting in the development of this product does not give you the right to treat people like they are beneath you.. being close minded does not expand knowledge...
I'm not kicking the legs out from under anyone, nor am i treating anyone as if they're beneath me. All i did was present the facts as to what restrictions developers often put in place on trial software.. It is not my fault you don't seem to grasp that adding a watermark is perfectly normal and acceptable in trial software. That's just one of the options developers have (as i said in an earlier post). I'm definitely not close minded, if you'd know me you'd know i was very open minded. Hell i'm all for "open source"
.
sending logs files to elby does stink.. it should be easier..
In what way does it stink? How can it be easier than clicking on the button that sais "send log to elby" when an encode fails. That's right, all it takes is the push of a button WITHIN the software. And if the user spots a problem after an encode supposedly completed succesfully, he can pull that button up by pressing the alt key on the keyboard. How hard is that?
in general most compare the fine products that slysoft / elby do have, and expect as much.. yes I do understand growing pains..
And i'm right there along with them with high expectations, i just have the patience and understanding to know that creating an easy to use software to fully support the dozens of variations the blu-ray standard allows isn't easy. I also understand that the software now has barely been out for a few months, it still needs a lot of work and isn't even fully feature packed as slysoft wants it to be, but they have to release it at some point to catch bugs. Internal testing can only do so much.
I don't send log files to them due to the volume that they are receiving now it "must" be overwhelming
Now that doesn't make sense, that's exactly what you SHOULD do. Send in the logs, neither you nor i know if you encounter an existing bug, a new one, or a new codec variation that isn't supported yet or spotted by someone else. Unless that log is sent it cant be fixed/supported until someone else would encounter that precise issue.
.. I do read in this forum. I stopped voicing my opinion here until now
If you read the forum as you say you do, you should read that every time a user encounters an issue they are requested to provide a log. If you don't (want to) do it, that is not elby's nor slysofts fault but your own.
ch3vron I am not stupid and I do not deserve to be treat as such. belittling never works ! bad opinion's are formed and it does chase people away....
It's Ch3vr0n
and i don't think your stupid nor have i treated you as such. I simply present the facts as they are, and maybe i am a bit direct in saying things but that's simply for the fact that nobody can twist my words or their meaning.
Why don't you all do yourselves a favour and buy DVDFAB ? Better than getting patronised by the likes of chevron.
Not only that, - it just WORKS!
A favor and buy that thing? You're joking right? Not only does that thing compromise speed over quality, it isn't even a match versus freeware alternatives that just work too and a lot better. If you want to advertise that thing, its fine but do it in the 3rd party software section.
Better than getting patronised by the likes of chevron.
For starters, i'm not patronising anyone, but sure as hell sounds like u are. I've never interacted with you so don't judge me until you do.
Now, can we get back on topic instead of dissing me?
