"Video Enhancer" - vdub front end?

Has anyone used Video Enhancer from Infognition? It looks like a front end for vdub. It is shareware for $39.95 after a one month trial, although Digital River has a special for $27.95.

I know that I could learn to use vdub, old programmer that I am, but I would rather spend my time editing.

Video Enhancer is a standalone program that will accept VDub filters. So you won't need to learn VDub (pretty straight forward really; it doesn't use scripting like AVIsynth). You just need to learn Video Enhancer, which is also pretty straight forward, and any filter you wish to use with it.

Note that Video Enhancer only works with progressive video. They suggest two approaches for interlaced video:

1 Use a vdub filter to deinterlace it.

2 Use a filter to convert an interlaced frame into one having two progressive fields (all the odd lines followed by all the even lines).

I purchased Video Enhancer in June of 2007 and used it occasionally. I haven't bothered to install it on my current machine - but have no complaint against it.
