WHat I meant was to always make it default to QT mov format. However I did some more searching and found that I needed to change the template to do that.
Thanks for taking the time to answer the question. I appreciate it!
Thanks for the reply. As for sizing I would like to keep the footage the same dimension but change the frame. For example, if I have a 640×480 clip and then want to put another clip next to it I would need to change the frame size to 1280 x 480.
