I think this post could really be more useful if we transform it into a poll, since right now it has grown big enough to make difficult both finding out what all the feature requests are and what are the most voted ones.

Also i have three feature requests.

A more tightly integrated cutter, mender and burner (this is also in order to achieve the next point)
I don't know how hard this really is to do but a more professional approach inside mp would be nice. As it is now i have to explain to my parents that they can go into My Tv and then recordings to see and compress/convert what has been recorded and then they have to go to My Burner, where they can also convert, in order to burn it all to a dvd.
