  something is happening to my videos when I create them as .avi files
 on Windows media player and then convert them to .mov on QT Pro.
 Nothing is ever as easy as yout hink. It gets all fuzzy, pixelates,
 and even breaks
 down at certain times, and the sound quality diminishes at some points
 to loud static.

Hi Again Everyone,

I'm sending this plea for help out again because while I was able to
convert my video from .wmv to .mov using a third-party program, it was
not at the quality that I would have liked, and I would like to get my
money's worth from QT Pro.  That being said, anyone who can help me
with suggestions on what the problem might be would be heroes in my
book.

Thanks for dealing with my badgering,
Tim

Hi Everyone,

OK - so I've been gone for a while, and i thought everything
 would be fine if I jumped right back in to vlogging. Well it turns out
 something is happening to my videos when I create them as .avi files
on Windows media player and then convert them to .mov on QT Pro.

trying to get my first Semanal video posted and I don't have the
patience to search the list. Anyone who can help me please...HURRY!
I'm so dramatic. Happy Saturday!

i assume youve already update your QT?
If youve been out of vlogging the past year, there's been quite a few
updates since then.

I suspect you have a codec problem. Just a few thoughts.

1. I'd download a copy of MPEG Sreamclip, import the .avi to .mov to
see if that helps.

2. Or you could bring it into Windows Movie Maker2 and export it out
as DV - avi. Then bring it into QT Pro.

I wouldn't convert anything using Windows Media Player.

Have you tried Flip4Mac. It takes a WMV and converts it to .mov.  
Just a thought.

I have always converted my movies using Windows Movie Maker (which is
what I meant in the first e-mail but was rushing when I typed it -
must remember to proofread e-mails) into QT Pro.  It is my only
option, and it is what I'm used to.  It's never given me a problem
before.  I did convert it as a DV-AVI first.  I should have been more
clear about that the first time.  Thanks Gena.

No problem, I'm trying to upload for Semanal as well and as you can
see you are not the only one with slippery fingers. 

Hmmm. Did you add a new program that has overtaken a file extension? 
Another thing I would look at is the QTP export settings. Was
something changed or reverted back to a prior setting?

That dang Real Player comes to mind. I think think MPEG Streamclip can
bale you out of your worries.

Don't worry, you'll make it.
