I honestly don't see how MLVFS is in any way better than MlRawviewer. I'm not trying to engage in a debate I just don't see how DNGs, JPEG previews, WAV files and what ever else MLVFS produces is any better than MlRawViewer. Now I see the point that MlRawViewer hasn't been updated since Dec 2014, but how much progression has the MLV format had since then aside from code optimization and menu adjustments. I haven't seen much. So yeah it was last updated in 2014 but MLV hasn't changed.... much since then. MlRawViewer allows you to playback real time mlv files on Windows, mac and Linux, it produces prores 444 and DNG if you want the additional workflow and it works right out of the box. No extra junk files to install.
MLVProducer is cool also as it has some color manipulation features and what not but that (to me) is contrary to my work flow. I say all that to say this. Each of these programs were released free and have their own quirks. It's not necessary to downplay one app because it wasn't updated in a few years if the technology it supports hasn't changed much since it's last update.
