Well, not a hero but a poor linux user who cannot run SMC 
Nice to see some people are running video4fuze successfully! As mentioned earlier, it is based on mencoder and AVI-Mux GUI. If you encounter any problems with the video conversion part done by mencoder or do not like to go through the video4fuze installation procedure I suggest you follow the steps described in this tutorial. The windows video conversion part uses excellent MediaCoder software (and AVI-Mux GUI thereafter) which gives you a lot more options and alternatives than with mencoder only.
