Yep. In my case, I mux MPEG-2 files with BBC BMX in mxf. I was actually using ffmpeg to mux audio and video before, but I found out that some softwares are just too "pretentious" in terms of specifications and refuse MPEG-2 files muxed with ffmpeg but accept them if I mux them with BBC BMX (I'm looking at you AVID!).

By the way, thanks for the updated binaries, Groucho!

+1
Although I've automatized everything via bat, it would be useful to have it available on VirtualDub as well. For the records, by "VirtualDub" I mean VirtualDub2 Filtermod of course.
