Massive, Thanks Arjo, The first stage of the project is fine and I think it unlikely that the work will go beyond that. Only then will it need the format I dont seem to have here.
I dont know the file sizes but a first assembly check file came in at 2.5 gigs. I very quickly knocked that back into mpeg1, Lol. 120 megs now!! A bit of work yet to do however. Tweaking re-takes here and there and sorting the sound. N. On Thu, 20 May 2010 07:21:46 +0200, "Arjo Rozendaal" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Neil, > > > > I'm not sure how big your files are.
