If you want to destroy your computer, MainActor is wonderful. I wanted firewire compatability, so I went for the 3.74 (beta) found on their Linux forums. During capture, it went into an infinite loop, and quickly filled up my entire HD with a bogus video file. Oh yeah, and installing it suid root was great- it overrided system files. Not even an fsck could save my poor box. I'll stick with trying to learn Cinelerra and Jahshaka, thank you very much.
