One thing I really notice is timing in the dialog. It's one of those 'I know it when I see it' things. I couldn't do any better if I were producing it, but I can see a clear difference between amateur and professional shows. It's hard to exactly put my finger on it, but they'll hold onto a shot, the dialog will lag by a little bit, and it doesn't land as well as it could.
Yeah the audio mixing too. I almost feel mean saying this, but Trek fan productions have really made me appreciate good acting and good audio.

"That's because that /is/ Ted, the sysadmin from Xcorp" :^D
I know what you mean. I think I could work with that though. It gives it a more true life representation of people doing their thing. When combined with the other "errors" though; it makes it harder... or something. Probably best to adjust expectations, and enjoy them for what they are. Homemade Trek is better than no Trek, so it's something new when nothing else is on
