Can you send us this mov file, this way we can have a go asn see what's wrong.
Normally mov files should work because we use quicktime to play them.

send your file or link to file to : edwin@resolume.com

Cheers
Edwin

I have the same problem. I've got a lot of Quicktime movie files from a friend of mine, but only a few of the files I can import in Resolume 2.2...

Hi,
sorry, yes i received some mov files from the both of you.
the file i received from Guido ('Military airplane...') does work fine on my machine.
The files from anonymous (sorry couldn't find you email anymore so i could not find you r name) behave weird. They all got loaded, two played fine but one (pilot) played but didn't display the correct length and fps.
so all i can say right now is that we will have a look to see what we can fix, otherwise batch converty your files to make them more compatible. In some the quicktime timebase is different on the mac.

anyway, sorry for being able to help right away but i suggest converting your clips in a format wich you know works best. We support qwuicktime of course but for performance sake you should skip to the avi (vfw). format.

Cheers,
Edwin

Thanx Edwin!

I was searching for software to convert Quicktime movies to AVI, but the ConvertMovie 1.1 program (wich I have payed 30 euro for!!) doesn't work well with the Quicktime movies that came from the MAc computer...

I will reinstall and check than if Resolume 'Military airplane...' works fine on my PC (You don't have Mac isn't it?)
Wicht Quicktime version do you have?

My system isn't stable as wel, so I have some work to doe first...

btw i use (and recommend) free RAD Video Tools for MOV->AVI conversion, they are little rough in use but do they work fine:

Hi vvarp,
did you ever manage top to batch processing in bink and smacker without having to selecte the codec every time it reaches a new file.
and if so, could you tell me how ;-)

Cheers
