Re: [videoblogging] Re: To buy Quicktime Pro or Not buy Quicktime Pro
Don't know if this helps, Charles, but I've just used flip4mac to convert some WMV files to QT. See if you think they feel like WMV files. The Strangers video and the Princess Man of Her Dreams vids originate with WMV files. http://fauxpress.blogspot.com Jan -- It isn't done alone http://fauxpress.blogspot.com http://blog.urbanartadventures.com .

I'm eager for a clue as well. Can I edit my movies in MovieMaker and then use QT Pro to generate QT files from them? I think QT looks much better than WM. Will I get decent quality this way, or will I simply end up with QT movies that look like WM movies? Yahoo! Groups Links charles.hope.vcf YAHOO!

I'm just having a real hard time imagining how it manages to do thoe 'other cool stuff' it can do ... whatever that is. I haven't found any real good info online about it either ... maybe I just am not getting it because I'm used to timeline / windows environment - but if somone could vlog a) what QT Pro can do for you as oppossed to say ulead's 'video studio 9' (which can save .mov files) and b) how QT actually does what it does (the interface I mean), I would be veary eager to see that vlog. I need to get a new editor ... and I've wasted too much money now on products that look better on the shelf than on the hard drive. - Dave YAHOO!

I have QT Pro. V6.5 I only use it for compressing to .mov, or .mp4 for my videos. It does the job fine, however I do get large file sizes. When I compare a mp4 to a wmv file (250kps music 32kbs 15fps) I generally prefer the wmv format. For the high end codecs, I use DivX. If you want to compare results, check out either episode 3 or 4 of my Geocaching videozine. They're available in mov, mp4, wmv, rm and avi formats. You can download, watch and compare. Episode 3 is http://www.archive.org/details/IcenryesGeocachingVideozineEpisode3 here. Episode 4 is http://www.archive.org/details/IcenryesGeocachingVideozineEpisode4 here. but if someone could vlog a) what QT Pro can do for you as oppossed to say ulead's 'video studio 9' (which can save .mov files) and b) how QT actually does what it does (the interface I mean), I would be veary eager to see that vlog. It already exist. Check out the tutorials at http://www.freevlog.org/ Hope this helps. Shel www.icenrye.com www.icenrye.blogspot.com YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.

around the 28/7/05 petertheman mentioned about [videoblogging] Re: To buy Quicktime Pro or Not buy Quickti that: It's not. The difference is this: you HAVE to upgrade in order to *watch* videos on the web. But the upgrade deletes your previous Quicktime pro, and therefor you loose your cash. I will never again pay for Quicktime pro, either. It's not worth it, for me. now that's a bloody good point. and sucks. -- cheers Adrian Miles hypertext.RMIT URL:http://hypertext.rmit.edu.au/vlog YAHOO!

You get nearly nothing for the registration fee, and on top of it, QT7 beta for Windows is crap. Yes, its a beta, and therefore its bugginess is anticipated, but I installed it because more and more vloggers are encoding their vids with QT7 codecs on macs, and so, being on windows, I have upgraded to see their goods. Wait a while until QT7 is more mature on Windows, and then re-evaluate. RO SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant YAHOO! GROUPS LINKS Visit your group "videoblogging" on the web.

So what program do you use for editing? Nick --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, Michael Verdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Also be aware that the only kind of editing that you can do in QT pro is cut and paste. There are no transitons, no timelines, no titling tools, etc. That being said there are all kinds of other things you can do and it's totally worth the cost. I just say this because some people have found it a disappointment when trying to replace their timeline based editor. -Verdi http://michaelverdi.com http://freevlog.org On Jul 26, 2005, at 12:15 PM, Markus Sandy wrote: i use it on Win2K be aware that you have to pay the quicktime pro tax EACH time you upgrade and that there is an upgrade QT7 currently in beta I believe the first time i got qtpro 6.5 on mac, there was an upgrade one month later and apple's faq said pay up again or downgrade - your old key won't work - it soon became apparent that I wanted to go up, not down - those bastards I think its a good tool for the money, but wait for QT7 if you can to maximize your investment naschmult wrote: I have been using Microsoft Movie Maker (or whatever it is called from XP), sometimes it just crashes on me and drives a little crazy because I want to get my work done.
