Well I contacted them and they told me the same thing as last year. We are aware of the problem and we are working on it. They came out wiht an update for windows a few month ago bot not as far as I know an update for the mac so I really won't believe that they are aware of the problem until I myself see some changes. I pointed them to my youtube vid I made so hopefully that gets the ball roling a bit more.
