Flip 4Mac is a P.O.S. They write a trailer on your videos / movies which is almost impossible for the average amature to get rid of. They do this to cause you to spend the money on there program to remove the audio trailer. Even after you spend the money, it is a big problem to get rid of the scar. This is a bunch of unscrupulos crap. There is not a rating low enough for there people.
