Hate to sound like the Human Rights Watch here, but why are you posting another thread relating to ConvertX v3? You could have easily asked for people's feedback on your other thread about the Beta Release.
The users of AD are not beta-testers, let them make up their own minds as to what program suits them and what they want to use.
Not everyone wants to pay for AVI transcoders and not everyone can either, especially when there are many equivalent freeware apps around.
If your a fan of ConvertX, great, good for you, keep using it. I agree it's a good program. As for other people, let them ask and try out different programs before making their minds up.
