"Pretty simple for what I need" It opens those 35,000 images that I generated much faster than others I tried (virtualdub, adobe premiere, ulead). Conversion is pretty straightforward. It says it's free for personal use but adds a small banner at start. Well, I can live with that. Didn't open a flv file that I downloaded. Maybe I'm missing some codec. If you're like me and render huge amounts of images (bmp/jpg) and want to convert them to xvid avi then it's a good solution. If you convert flvs then it has some problems (or maybe it's just my computer).

"handy program if you into that kind of thing" a movie editor for free is great that allows you to join clips toooo complicated to use and does all ways do what you want it to do in the order you tell it. nice product.

"Good program that did the trick" I needed it for taking stills and making a video file and it did it very well. The controls fairly straight forward and I figured it out in about 1o minutes of trial and error. I don't like the water mark at the beginning of the video output file. I suppose I could create a filler to catch the water mark but it is a pain. Enough of a hassle that I am still looking for alternatives

We had a rush job, rebuilding an animation from hundreds of png files. I searched and stumbled on VideoMach, I was hesitant because votes people had left were not very good (3 stars out of 5). I took the chance and it worked well. Thanks a bunch. When you finish converting a batch of images to an animation, it is not clear how to start a clean new batch, the interface looks like you keep adding more frames. Not a really big issue, I didn't have time for notes & restarted it between batches. A great little software, works well. Use it on a more powerful machine, that will make a big difference in speed. When I tested it, there was a huge processing time difference between running it on a 4 year old XP laptop and a brand new Window 7 laptop from this year. I would suggest to the developer to add a batch processing feature where you can load multiple jobs upfront (different ones or sequential ones) and launch and forget it to come back later and find the completed jobs in corresponding folders or drives.
