Hello. I tried to use k9copy to copy a dvd into an avi file (MPEG-4), and the program crashed. This is version 2.3.7-i586-2vl70 from the extra repository.

Once it did work, but generally it crashes. I have used k9copy on a weaker computer with less memory running Debian and I did not have nearly the same issues that I've had with this version.
