>The images need to have varied time durations
David, you could do almost all your editing with the extended Quicktime External, but for changing the duration of a frame you could use Applescript. something like set the duration of frame x of track x of document x to yyyy. You would have to do the timekeeping yourself, but you would probably have to do that anyways. This way you have a file that is proportional to the number of images and not oversized due to repeated images to account for a framerate. regards Bernd David Bovill-4 wrote: > > ....
