Guys, I've searched these forums ad nauseum, and I keep seeing posts where it is said that Mpeg-2 support is coming soon. is this true?

I've just recently converted my entire collection (almost 7 years of PO, ETV and Screenplay) and one thing I noticed is that some videos look great, others suck.

Unless you Convert each video on an individual basis (which would take a year) there's no telling what it's going to look like.

the native VOB files are higher in quality no matter how you encode an MP4.. it's a lossy codec.. you can make it look decent, but why not just support Mpeg-2 and be done with it?

Virtual DJ supports it on the mac, and it works perfectly, so it's not a matter of compatibility.. Quicktime supports it with the additional plugin, heck, even open source stuff like VLC has Mpeg-2 framework in place.

is there any plan for supporting it anytime soon? I mean come on, it's the standard.

I'm loving the software, but It's really backwards that serato would require certain formats and stuff, then not offer a tool that converts the files...

Why has serato not developed an app that converts your video collection in bulk to serato friendly files that look really good? and how about a tagger program? Ugh I'm so frustrated...

I've been DJing with this 5 nights a week since I bought it, 4 weeks ago, and I'm comfy with it now, but there are still little quirks that make me scratch my head?

I'm sure many of them are where the programmers coded themselves into a corner, and it would require a major re-write to fix them, but other than that, it's been fun.
