I've been trying to locate software to do video capture in the mpeg 
format.  I've noted that Broadcast 2000 is gone, and apparently so is 
Cinelerra.  The broadcast 2000 link to Cinelerra only says it's gone and 
provides a link to microsoft.com (what's up with that??)

Anyway, any suggestions on mpeg tools?
