Thread: Quicktime for PC???

A client of mine would like to have his finished product on a USB stick as well as a dvd so he can show sponsors etc...

I'm a MacTard and not a very techno-savvy one at that - now if Quicktime works on his PC laptop, fine - but he's never heard of it and from what I can Google there's no Quicktime download options for PC and he wouldn't have a clue how to do it anyway.

How could I compress the c ompleted i-movie project into a format his shitty Windows laptop understands? As far as I know, Quicktime is the only option for Mac and only the compression settings can be adjusted.

Cheers.

You are kidding me right?

Apple - QuickTime - Download

For Mac and PC

QuickTime is available for Win, but nobody use it because it's such a huge pile of crap. A lot of QT opensource alternatives too on the PC.

Try to save in Real format, even Mactards have that on their computer

WMV is also available on Macs so you can save directly into Windows Media player 8

I can only compress it as a .mov file from i-movie, after that I dunno, can I CONVERT the mov file into a whatever?

Convert MOV to AVI

Will this take effort?


I don't want to have to charge him any more - he's skint.

If you had PC and I gave you a Quicktime file, would you be able to play it if you asked some of your PC savvy mates what to do?

i.e. He can sort this out himself, because I've already done the job at a fraction of the cost and only because it benefits the Foundation For The Blind Thailand.

Couldn't he download it from YouTube anyway?

Fuck this shit, he can figure it out.

Cheers, will pass it on to him.

you shouldn't charge him for that, should be included in your fee. It only takes CPU processing time, not Scampy processing time which stands at 0% idle most of the time

this comment personifies you to a tee Scampy...

you come on here asking for help about the simplest of things which you could find from a quick google...

when you get the answers from some kind poster you're too foking lazy because it 'takes effort'...bah.

you really don't deserve the help you get on here...

What Baldrick said. FileHippo.com - Download Free Software
VLC player and Klite codec pack and you can play anything.
