The Mac can read from an NTFS formatted drive with no problem,and has been able to for a while. However as has been noted, it cannot write to an NTFS drive. I did not know there was software that allowed this, great thing to learn. Neat what you can learn. I use MacDrive on my PC, and it can read and write to MAC drives from my PC.

I can export most everything:

Quicktimes are problematical- large and not really good quality. WMV are much better and smaller. MPEG 2 and MPEG 1 are good. I can export uncompressed AVI, but they always fail 70% of the way. It is an 9 year old system with the last update 4 years ago.

I have uncompressed, Animation, Cinepak and other codecs installed.

I CAN do a tiff or Targa sequence (among many others) but that doesn’t help me with audio (I suppose I could do it as two separate files one for the picture sequence and one for the audio.

Thanks

I’m not sure how many answers you will get here. Isn’t this the final cut pro list?

I’d try making a copy of the file, and then just changing the file extension to .mpg (you just rename it.)

See if that plays on your mac, PCs tend to like 3 character extensions I’m pretty sure it will play fine on a PC.

I believe Vegas is PC Only.

Hope this helps.

OK, cool about using a PSD file, but how can I improt a graphic without it shrinking the width?

Thanks

I didn’t know if Motion could open a .PSD ( I also didn’t want layers.)

The problem I ran into was that the graphic didn’t open up as 720 wide. I suppose motion scaled it to make it fit vertically, but how can I import it so it wouldn’t be scaled upon import.

Thanks

I actually “picked up” Final cut overnight, but the nuances are taking the time, and there are a lot of them.

The more I use the program, the more I like it.

If only I could get A B track dissolves, and understand how to control the bouncing audio clips as I move them, and maybe find the setting so that I don’t accidentally overwrite one clip with another as I drag it.

Thank you David, no cow pie necessary. Is there a more basic forum than this one?

I know I’ve seen the “Viewer” referred to as “Source”, but so happy to know what the “Canvas” is called.

As far as the other part, thanks, that may be it, I’ll check back on the system Monday, but seems to make sense.
