Try entering "Quicktime Pro" as the name (without the quotation marks).
edit: I see you've figured it out.

Also, I've been meaning to ask:

I am still using Quicktime 5 on OS 9, but QT 6 in OS X. Both are Quicktime Pro. Will the same QT 6 Pro password I have for OS X work for the OS 9 QT 6 Pro as well? I don't wanna upgrade if it won't.

Jeff,

I do have a new Mac. A quicksilver G4 867 Mhz with 1.5 GB of RAM.

I think this model can handel the big drives.

Thanks for the info :)

Not sure, but why not just try it? Worst that happens is it says no :)

FCP4 Apple certified course in Vancouver
 
Anyone know who in town is offering this? The Apple website shows it as Vancouver Film School, but they tell me it isn't the Apple certified course

Curtis T. Stoeber June 16th, 2003 03:53 PM

No, the worst that will happen is that it will say no and I'll have to find a way to "downgrade" back to Quicktime 5. Don't wanna waste my time.

Copying an iDVD DVD
 
I want to make another copy of a DVD I made in iDVD. I still have the original edited files but don't want to start from scratch.

Can disk copy do this? I'm still a relative newbie to the Mac and don't know all the ins and outs. If I can do this in disk copy how do I do it?

Note, this MY material. I'm not asking how to break copy protection or anything along those lines.

Yes! Look here. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42724

Thanks. I checked this group and the yahoo iMovie archives but neglected to check the Apple site - silly me.

If the input signal was not DV make sure it is DV when it is going
out. What resolution and framerate are you using? Print to tape
might require all sections to be rendered as well (unsure).

Chris Kay June 18th, 2003 03:03 PM

how do I ?
 
...it was Beta in...how do I make sure it is going out as DV? Everything is rendered...if you could tell me the exact setting to check I'd really appreciate it...I mean I've got a FW cable coming out of the G4 and it's running into the deck...I hate to sound dumber than I feel...but I don't know what else to check...

Thanks!

Chris

Rob Lohman June 18th, 2003 03:04 PM

What resolution and frame rate is the beta footage? What happens
if you play the timeline while you have your deck connected
and try recording then?

Chris Kay June 18th, 2003 03:09 PM

yep, tried that
 
Rob,

I tired playing it back out of the timeline...black...a little noise...but no picture...I captured Beta out using an Aurora Igniter card MJPEGA (thier codec) at 29.97 FPS...10 MBPS...I might be getting some of the terminology worng...I'm no tech, trust me...Apple said I should not run off FW drives...but that didn't work...really lost...

Keep in mind that 7200 rpm drives can get quite hot. My maxtor
drive is in a Maxtor enclosure that hopefully takes that into
account.

Personally I wouldn't go with 5400 drives. Yes they should be
able to sustain 3.6 MB/s for DV, but it feels a bit cramped to me.

SCSI drives are also available in 10000 rpm versions and faster
ones are on the horizon.
