Well for me it was a fight but I came to understand the software. It is not easy to use. I had to go out and buy "QuickTime For Macintosh and Windows" by Stern and Lettieri. It generally looks good if I keep the distribution method as the focal point. The problems that I have had with it are (using 6.0)
*I could only cut and paste. *I started with QT Pro and at the end of editing I would have a huge bloated .avi that I had to port over to .wmv to finish. *I couldn't edit in .wmv and then port to .mov *I couldn't use .mov because of the file size - too large for dial-up. I bought Ulead VideoStudio 9 where I can produce a high quality .avi file and then create a .wmv and .mov version. One of the things I envy about podcasters is the variety of "one stop" software where they can record, edit, encode and upload an mp3 file. I think what we all would want is a universal video format that would play on all systems. Flash is a universal format but we don't/can't/can't afford to use it.
