Excuse me bud!!
   The comments about MainActor in your message was NOT authored by me.

   This is a very scary reality, that someone (you?) would issue such a false
   message. I don't have either package; although I have interest in
   buying MainActor Broadcast, because I understand it's a great package.

  The AVI only message I issued in December was to ask if anyone knew what would
  be the best package for AVI conversion. The responses I received were a positive
  support of MainActor.
