  • compressing to QT 6.xx instead of QT 7- HELP

    Posted by Tom Adams on May 19, 2005 at 4:46 pm

    Hello,

    I’m having major troubles having a client using a PC to view files that I’m compressing from my mac. I know it’s the age old problem…but I need a solution today!

    I can’t export (from FCP HD or QT7Pro) as QT7 and have the client dowload apple QT player because there is NO QTplayer7 for windows YET.

    I can’t compress to a WMV file becasue I’m using the popwire quicktime export plugin for mac and that loses audio sync…known problem acknowledged by their support team.

    HELP ANYONE? is there a way to have QT export to qt 6.xx?. I also have discreet cleaner 5…but that sucks and I’m not sure if it will export to QT7 or QT6.

    solution anyone??

    What codec are you trying to use? As long as you compress using a codec that is available in QT 6 you should be fine. Sorenson would work.

    ahahmm. I’m actually just exporting as a standard quicktime file…not using sorenson or anything. I see , so i could using mpeg 4 or sorenson or any of the other ‘codecs’ within the quicktime settings. sorry, i wish i knew more about the specifics of codecs but never have enough time to learn…to busy trying to get the jobs done…catch 22.

    any other detailed info would be greatly appreciated!
