  • Exporting to Windows Media Player gives only 30 sec.???

    Posted by Eric Klassen on March 28, 2007 at 10:55 pm

    I’ve got a 3 minute timeline I’m trying to export in two different formats for the web. I’ve successfully done it for Quicktime, but exporting for WM will only export the first 30 seconds…??? The exporting stops sooner than it should, and I get a playable file with most of the timeline missing. I’ve tried setting in and out points — no good. Any idea what’s causing this?

    Thanks,
    Eric

    You downloaded Flip4Mac, but you only have the demo version. You need to purchase the full version to use it in production.

    All the best,

    Tom

    Yup, you’ve got the free Flip4Mac player. It gives you a demo of its encoding abilities, but you have to buy it to really use it.

    You have several options ranging from $29 to $179 depending on what you need.
