  • Quicktime: how to see multiple files playing in one frame.

    This post should really go into a quicktime group but since I couldn’t find one I thought I’ld ask it here.

    Anyone know how to, or if its possible to play multiple movies at once with quicktime?
    I basically want to look at all my reference material, animated .gifs, some stills, some movies, playing all at once in once quicktime frame.

    I know you can offset a few at once but that’s a manual process. I have about 20 that I want to see side by side.

    Thanks in advance.

    Since you’re asking in the Ae forum, throw them all in a comp, scale them, and arrange them in a grid, then render.

    In Premiere, you might try a multicam clip and play it right in the application.
