    Mr. Ryan, we’re going to keep you here in class till you get it right. 🙂
    kilobits x8= kilobyte (8 kilobits to 1 kilobyte), not the other way around.

    [Nick Ryan] “I get it now. Modem connection is kiloBITS, kpbs in iTunes is kiloBITS, FCP is listing data rate in kiloBYTES. Kilobytes x8 = kilobits. Huzzah!”

    Sorry I can’t help with the question, but to clear something up:
    The 48.8 is *not* kilobytes, it’s kilobits.
    There are 8bits to a byte.
    There are 1,000 bits to a kb (kilobit).
    A 56k modem (dial-up), which never maxxes out to the full 56k, is bits, not bytes. It maxxes out to 6KB (Bytes) or less.
    Ed

    [Bret Williams] “48.8 is KB a sec (kilobytes). It actually equates to 5 or 7K for some reason.

    Anyway, your 32kb is kilobits per sec, which is resulting in 1.9 kiloBYTES a sec. So, you can actually triple or quadruple that to fit in a 48.8 modem connection.

    Which just happens to be close to the standard iTunes 128kbps for stereo. If you make it mono, 64kbps is fine. If you don’t mind it sounding compressed, 32 will work for mono as well.”

    When you say you looked for it, do you mean you did a “find” in Finder?
    Is the file referenced in the bin? Did you do a find for that exact file name,
    selecting all available hard drives? Did you select “date Modified” in your drives?
    If you did that and you can’t find it, it truly *is* gone (I think).

    You need a black burst generator. Nothing in FCP.

    Not to me. Although I *do* have friends who think having 2 more of anything
    is better than not having it. 🙂

    does it really matter?”

    Sorry, I have Flash 8 Pro, so anything Flash I play opens in that. If you have Flash Pro, you can export any .fla or .swf
    as a QT (or various other formats such as JPEG, etc.)

    What program opens when you click on the .exe? Was this something like a screensaver with a Flash movie inside?
    Here’s something to look at:

    An .exe is a program, it’s not a video or other media that can be converted to a .mov.

    But you run into the IT departments’ that don’t allow anyone to install anything on their computers. The only way
    I use Flash is with the ON2VP6 codec, which requires Flash 8 to play it. Anything earlier looks like crap. I agree that h.264 looks better than even
    the latest Flash.
    Ed

    [Bret Williams] “IMHO h.264 blows any flash codec away, but I find that too many people don’t have QT 7. And all a web browser can do is check for QT, but not a specific version. Whereas it’s easy to have a browser check the flash plugin and send the viewer there and install.”

    Just a guess, but I think you’re using the wrong MPEG-1 setting. Use the one in the Custom Settings folder (MPEG-1 Web).
    It compresses a Program stream MPEG. I think what you’re doing is using a setting that gives a separate Video and Audio file.

    Ed

    [mortimer heathcliff] “which audio file do you combine this with and how do you do it? whenever i choose mpeg-1, it only renders a video file. do you just send the audio file separately?”
