This is in the howto section of madpeguin. How is this a "howto"? It hardly qualifies as a first look preview, let alone a full review. The only "howto" I saw there was telling you to run Kino as root using sudo in order to capture DV.

From the article, I learned three additional things (besides the DV point) about Kino: 1) It can drop frames if desired 2) It uses a storyboard interface 3) The author likes it but wishes it had a timeline editor.

Bleh.
