Thank you to those who responded to the previous question of Codecs!
Ben Waggoner suggestion of Motion JPEG "B" is an excellent solution
supporting
fields, and doesn't force RGB transformation, and only bumped up file
size about
5 megs - instead of hundreds of megs!
I have 2 more questions I hope someone could PLEASE help me with . . . .
1). I need to open and re-export 210 movies into this Motion JPEG B (at
90%
quality) and place in a different folder . . . . . is there an
apple script that
could do this - and if so - where could I acquire it?
2). I need to export a picture (.pict - or .tif ?) of the first frame
of every movie (105
real time & 105 slow motion qt movie(s) - (to use as a DVD menus) . . .
. is there
an apple script that would allow me to do this - and if so - where
could I acquire it?
And, if the movie is interlaced (which it is) how could I get the best
looking (or highest
resolution) picture from it???
These are really tough questions! Could anyone help me on this?
Sure appreciate any suggestions or pointers you might share!
