Highly recommended. Yrrah, you might want to mention that although the home page for XMedia Recode: http://www.xmedia-recode.de/index.html (at least the one I found) is in German, the download page says that the program's interface can be in "Deutsch, English, Fran�ais, Italiano, Japanese". Looks like a good program. Thanks for mentioning it. I'm going to download the portable version and the next time I need to convert anything, I'll give it a try. -- John Corliss BS206.

I also block as many posts from anonymous remailers (for example, usenet4all.se, x-privat.org, dizum.com, tioat.net, frell.theremailer.net) as possible due to forgeries posted through them. No ad, CD, commercial, cripple, demo, nag, share, spy, time-limited, trial or web wares OR warez for me, please.
