Even if you don't touch the audio, it will often re-encode DVD-compliant MPG video. This makes it just another one of the many that degrade video and waste time. It's a pity to see one of the best and simplest authoring tools ruined like this. Less is better. The lines are blurring between editing/encoding tools and authoring tools, and it's a shame because both seem to suffer for it.
