SmartGo 2.7.1

Monday, August 6. 2007


Hi there!!

I finally got the SmartGo 2.7.1 reviewed. The review lasts for 26 minutes and covers as many features and details as I could and comments on a few weak points. In fact, I think that even if you have it, you'll find some good details you may not be aware of. Is it worth it to buy it or not? I can tell you that if I had to choose between Many Faces of Go 11 and SmartGo 2.7, I would definitelly go for the last one (while I can't say anything about MoyoGoStudio as I still haven't reviewed it).

Better see it by yourself, compare and decide:

As you can see, the video was made on a very large resolution, so youtube doesn't let you see the video properly. You can download this video directly from my server: HERE. As you'll see, the video occupies around 50MB at a 1280x1024 resolution.

You may argue that the filesize is very big, but you should realise that most divx films (around 90 minutes) occupy around 700 MB, so I think I can be qutie proud of the compression procedure. I've checked this video both on Linux and Windows, though I've been reported audio problems with beta versions of this review and I've changed the audio codec, let me know if you have any problem with it.

As for SmartGo 3.0, there is already a list of improvements Anders Kierulf is working on: exporting to images, improving options panel and connection tactics...

We'll be waiting for it!!
