If you use QuickTime with Director, you have to include a QuickTime installer. No problem, they can be freely gotten and distributed and run in/through Director. I've found xtras for Director that would enable it to play MPEGs but I havn't used any of them. I know those who use them regularly and they seem to work out great. I don't believe Director will handle .wmf or .asf files. I belive that even PCs require an extra codec to play DivX. Therefore I'd hesitate to use a DivX encoded AVI. When I'm doing business to Business CDs, I usually use an AVI movie with the cinepak compressor. It doesn't require installing anything extra and and works for both Mac and Windows. It doesn't look the greatest but it works. If I was doing a CD for consumers I'd use QuickTime. They don't usually have to get permission from their IT department to install something [grin].

Before they made me they broke the mold!
