Hi Nathan. First, thanks for the videos it's very useful.
I can't answer now about your first video. Video 2: => Wow... not good (and weird). Which distrib do you use? And did you install Ring from the official package or build it from sources? Video 3 + your note: We are currently working on this issue. It will be fixed in a few weeks. The thing is when you add/remove contacts, the VCard can be duplicated and you'll have multiple contacts. Have a nice day, Sébastien.
