• IntMain Vista UI lacks of Transitions, Fades and some other things

  I like Windows Vista very much, but when i compare the current December CTP [of which I am beta tester] with a Mac OS X Tiger video found on the apple homepage, Vista falls behind in some areas.

  Hi All, Does anyone know is there any difference between the mpeg2 demux under 32bit windows and the one under 64 bit xp Since my BDA TV-watch app could work normally under 32 bit windows, somehow it fails on 64bit xp.
