Subject: QuickTime (MOV) Annimatinon Format

Anyone have any success with this? I've been around and around and I can't seem to get a simple annimation in this format to work. I'm on 4.10.02 version of Vue. Read the FAQ but not much about annimation that I can see (can't really do much of a search there) excpet a thread that says Divex (Divix) is best format for compression but I don't want to use a format that requires the general population to have to make a special download (Quicktime is more common). It would be even better, perhaps, if the built-in Mover produced SWF. So, I tried to use MOV format. It said I needed "authoring" software from Apple, so I installed it. Then I couldn't get any options to appear. Exited Vue. Entered Vue. Generated a ZERO size file. Reloaded QT 6.1. Tried again. Said I needed authoring software again, so I intalled it again. Back to 1st base! Ugh! So, anyone ever use this successfully or can anyone point me to a FAQ on it without going through to much trouble? Thanks!

...will NOT annimate in B&W. Sheesh! Click on format options and then advanced and change to B&W and click OK, then OK again. Render...guess what? Color!

I cannot do it either as MOV (purchased QT version 6). When rendering in MOV, I wrote by hand the extension of the file. But anyhow, the best is always to ender your animation image by image as a non compressed JPG. 1. if you have a crash, you can restart it, where it has stopped 2. you van easily assemble and compress the animation then in QT. I don't know about B&W, never have tried it. Are you using Mover 4 or just Vue ? :-)Guitta

The Mover inside of Vue 4. (I didn't pay for it).

Hi Chuck, Best to render as full frames uncompressed AVI and then use an editing program for quicktime output. PUREMOTIONS editstudio is very good and easy to use, I got a free demo of an early incarnation which gives me no restrictions except MPEG2. The full program isn't too expensive anyway. You can get better control over your output this way. regards Rokol.

Thanks, Rokol, I'll check it out. Message671414.jpg
