playing quicktime movies in windows
I have a client who needs about 40 hours of tape captured. The only problem is, he is a windows guy,
and I capture with FCP. Will my captured movies play on his machine, or is their a way to do AVI without
having to transcode everything captured? -

To just play them he can download Quick Time.
If he wants to do anything else besides just watching them, we’d have to know what he plans on doing and what software he is using before we could give advice.

he wants to put together highlights of ball games using windows movie maker. he said this is the only software he has
for editing. -
Movie Maker works with AVI and WM9 formats. You could export as either for him to edit in MM.
It would be so much easier for him to hook up a camera to his computer and capture directly himself though.
You’ll have to capture and convert/export.

yep. he doesn’t have a deck though. I may suggest to him it would be cheaper to buy a pos minidv
camcorder to capture. -
I *said* camera, not deck. 🙂

QT Pro will give him basic cut and paste for 30 bucks. You feed him the “master” clips, and he can cut these down to his heart’s content…
Not a bad way to put together highlight reels.
