hi stephen-
thanks again for the guidance on Motion issues. On another subject, i recently purchased your money-makinggraphics and effects dvd thru creative cow, and the dvd will not open and play in my new macbook pro. the dvd shows up in my hard drive , and i can view the folders if i click “open”, but it will not play. when i open dvd player it does not recognize the dvd as playable.
i searched the creative cow website for a customer service center, and there is none. any ideas on how to get the dvd to play,. or what the problem might be? other dvd’s play just fine. please advise…i’m just anxious to get into your dvd and start using your stuff!!
thanks-

david and stephen-

thank you for the responses- and i assume that fcp will seamlessly import a .motn file. Just to be clear, though, are you saying you “do” encounter the problem as i have described it i.e. ragged outer edges on text characters created in motion and imported into fcp, and that it is a mismatch in resolution between motion settings and fcp sequence settings—and if the settings are the same there will not be a problem? Or are you saying that there will be no problem if i import the motion project into fcp as a .motn foile? sorry for beating this to death, but i just want to be clear about how to solve the problem.
thanks again-

just wanted to report that clipstream worked great. i de-muxed the file and converted it. the new file imports and plays in fcp, video and audio (aiff). again, thanks to all for your posts.

Thanks to all of you who have posted on this thread. i’m going to download mpeg streamclip and attempt to converr the file to a different format.

thanks- upon further investigation it looks like it could be an mpeg2 muxed file. what would be the optimal format to re-format to ?
