QT Player and MPEG2 export

QT Player and MPEG2 export


  • Subject: QT Player and MPEG2 export

I am having problems scripting QT Player to export a clip as an MPEG2 file.
I have the MPEG2 encoder and it works fine if I manually export the clip and
and choose the encoder from QT Player's drop-down menu.

I would very much like to specify the MPEG2 codec in the script, along with
the bitrate to use, but I'll settle for it being able to work with the
"using most recent settings" attribute. ;-)

Here is what I have right now (that doesn't work). There is more to the
script, but this is the line that has me stuck. I can get other codecs to
work, just not the MPEG2 codec:

(Below is the first thing I tried, but it just gives me Sorenson 3 every
time, no matter if I export an mpeg 2 first and then quit or not)

export movie 1 to new_file as QuickTime movie using most recent settings


(I then tried this line, but QT Player tells me that MPEG2 is not defined)

export movie 1 to new_file as MPEG2 using most recent settings


Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can try next? I'm stumped. :-(
