strange...works fine here. Did you load an avi first or another file ?

any reason not to do that? i think it makes it much more clearer and avoids hassles with input files containg audio+video
well..I thought it was better that people can choose these options by themself. But I can manage them by default for sure.

ok, my bad. I'll change that.

ok...

Indeed...I forgot that.

well...as you said. It could be confusing.No problem, I'll change that.
