The program automatically detected when a user or a contact they were chatting with began streaming using Messenger's Webcam feature. Then, it saved the users' streamed video as ML20 files.
NOTE: ML20 files are named after the ML20 video codec that MSN Messenger and its siblings used to encode and decode video files.
