Well, here's the thing. Toasterless is nothing more than a demo really. Without the hardware it does nothing but allow the user to experience the GUI. There's no way to use it with say, 2 video files to do live switching and then output that to a third file (like a video editing or video recording or switcher program might allow) - so there's no emulated sources or dataflyer for the output.

It's kind of like visiting and warship museum where you can see and touch all the controls and weapons systems but they do absolutely nothing useful other than an experience of looking and touching.

I'm not criticizing, I'm sure that interests a lot of people. I was asking because if it were functional in anyway, it would be a lot more interesting to me, myself and I. That's all.
