footage from my dvx100a, I just wanted to extract frames grabs to analize and share with others…people do that right? But I think the way I knew is actually the best way…just to export still as quicktime convertion…just thought that people used another way.

Hope is clear now.

Thanks Noah.

That’s no it. I checked, I have the same on both….lower first. Funny thing though it compresses fine with one pass VBR, but not with 2 pass VBR. Wondering why? I have seen many people haven’t similar issues on intrnet posts.

Anyone out there who can explaing what is happening to us? help. help……

Thanks a lot for keeping in contact.

Can you install OS X into an external HD?

I’m just thinking. if it will be possible to run the operating sistem on an external Hd to get access to my broken G4.

Thanks

That was great. Thanks for all your help Harry, very useful.

I will keep posting my questions as a move through this process and hope that people will be willing to add feed-back and maybe it will be useful for somebody else.

Could I do a Hardware check like that too? I’m new at this but it seems that with an apple reinstalation cd I could do a hardware check. Could this be done via firewire? I guess so.

When the accident happened I thought I had lost it, after I oppened up I thought that could be fix just by replacing the HD and using an external monitor, now I don’t know anymore.

I thought that because the machine sounds like is turning on and when I press shift/control/option/power it looks like it is working and I even see something on the screen but becuse is smashed can tell what.

Thanks for helping all.

Peace.

Thanks MrVideo for replaying to me.

“You Powerbook is virtually useless to you with a cracked display. The was probably more extensive damage to it as well.”

why do you think that there might be more extensive damage? What about an external monitor?

I ordered a new powerbook and I will try to see if I get acces to the damage computer from the new one, I thought it will be woth trying. Otherwise I will try to go the apple dealer, but I think that it will be cheaper if I could figure out what it is and fix it myself.

Any recommendation will be more than welcome, I know it is fustrating but I have already learned so much.

Thanks to all who try to help.

Thanks Ross. I had seen that link. My case is one shot and many drastic light changes (theater lights). When I fix one part it affets the whole movie. Should I cut it up in pieces? don’t know. there is so much that this link don’t say.

Thanks again.
