    Since I am having such problems with H264 I am wondering if Pro Res is suitable for playback on an average PC notebook? Or Something else?

    Actually this is NOT the H264 bug (or at lest not entirely) I have noticed this is happening in other codecs as well. Still it is only my quicktime players and itunes that are effected … everything else displays fine (reimporting back into FCP, Motion, viewing online through Firefox …)

    Oops .. the above was meant for my other thread … I still want to know the best compression for quicktime to be given to a company to run off a laptop for a presentation (where I have no control over the laptop and what is installed other than quicktime pro.)

    What’s ‘average’, and what level of ProRes?

    I am not sure what lap top they are using – that is out of my control. I am using 422 for pro res. I am thinking H.264 might be the best.

    If you don’t know what the performance of the laptop is then you should create a number of versions e.g.

    WMV
    MPEG-1
    H.264

    Just in case.
