Great... thanks. Such a great support group. It could have taken be literally days to get to this...

I'm not sure we will be able to get users to do more than upgrade Quicktime, if H.264 is not natively supported we'll need to abandon that codec for now. I hesitate to include a "sniffer" in my apps that must also check for the presence of an additional component... if not found, require this installation before anyone can proceed. We're already "over the top" in terms of requiring users to install the lastest Acrobat and Quicktime. But these are standard enough we think the resistance will be low....but telling them to go to "free- codecs.com" and install yet another widget, is not going to work for "naive" users who barely know more than using email and surfing in IE.

OK so, then, to save me hours and hours of compression time, (every test of an export takes 10-15 minutes, even on a G5) and then days of turn around with my Windows beta group: I come begging for more:

What "standard codec" would you all recommend that will "work out of the box" on Windows that is best in terms of balance quality and file size?

Pierre, does 3ivXD4 work on Windows?

While H.264 is mainly usable with G5 machines, 3ivXD4 is best suited to serve very correct standard MP4 contents to G3 and G4 end- users machines.

Quicktime Movie to Movie:
Compression H.264, audio to AICC, 15 fps, keys every 75.


QuickTime pre-version 7 doesn't support H.264 natively. To handle
this, download the free H.264 codec and install it on the Windows
machine. This saved some otherwise unexplainable headaches for me.

...or encode the video using one of the supported codecs...
