After reading your post a second time I realized that you were talking about "ref" movies, I haven't been using those, I have been doing standard exports. WOW.. the ref movie is a much better way to do this! fast, fast, fast!!     The AVI ref worked fine, but the QT will not work as a ref file or a standard export.

 

Also it appears that the compression will have to occur here on the DS, we tried sending the ref movie across our network for someone else to compress, but had no success.

 

Thanks for waking me up to ref files!!!

Yes, but it works every single time. It takes longer because the audio needs to be exported as a file, only the video is referenced.

I can create AVI's and send them to cleaner for compression, but the export time seems to be substatialy longer, and when you have 40 spots to export, compress and post to the web, that extra time sure adds up.

Why do you use quicktime ref and not avi?

I posted last week about the problems I was having with quicktimes exported out of DS not working in cleaner or procoder.

 

Well, I have an interesting observation to share.

 

Quicktimes exported from projects created BEFORE qfe3 work just fine in Cleaner or Procoder, Quicktimes exported from projects created AFTER qfe 3 qive an error message(General QT errror) when loaded into Cleaner or procoder.
