Hi folks,
Since (very reluctantly) installing the Catalina 'upgrade' on my
recent vintage MBP, I've been able to access my older .mov video files
using VLC: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html
In VLC these .movs can be opened and converted to .m4v using VLC >
File > Convert/Stream. Unless
This is a fairly common problem with Apple and the video codecs included
with their OS. Apple has a tendency to make undocumented (or at least not
public) changes to even commom video codecs such as H.264 so that older
files encoded with them do not always play correctly, if at all. Since some
Good suggestions, but if one can¹t afford two computers, the rule here is
Never Change Operating Systems in the Middle of Editing a Project. Try
not to change the editing software either.
Wait until it is done, really really done. After all the fixes after the
sound mix. Or never update the
PPS. This is all way beyond my pay grade, glad I still have two complete
editing benches and a working flatbed and celluloid.

If you want a stable system, take it off the internet and lock it down.
Don't install updates, don't make any system changes. Backup your work

Thanks for all this.. I do backup everything on Time Machine once an hour. I
did not heed the warning on Premier. The type was so small and was talking

Yes, they are tech companies who are trying to sell things under the guise
that it helps your creativity. They are criminal in the way that all
wealthy people and companies under capitalism are criminal. Also remember,
