Hi

I have quicktime files that I need to convert to .mov files to post on the web.

They were sent to me with no file ending. Just called “Movie 1”

I tired to open it and save it as a .mov and I can’t do that.

I have no clue how to deal with video. Pls help!

Thanks

Tuck

Just add the extension in Windows Explorer!

- i.e. rename the file from to .mov

First u must know what format was Movie1 in.
then u can use some editing/capturing programs , many of them out there for ex. VirtualDub or Adobe premiere 6 or Macromedia Director or Ulead video studio fifth version , u can use it to convert it then to different format like RM(real-player) or ASF or WMV or as what you want mov format
if i were u i will use RM its good for videos on some website ,but if u perfer mov then go on.

tuck: open the file with GSpot (http://www.headbands.com/gspot/) or AVICodec (http://avicodec.duby.info/) and see what they say about it.

Here’s a small program that you can use to rename the file(s) - .dat renamer (http://www.angelfire.com/ego2/idleloop/dat_renamer.htm) You can specify what you’d like to appear as the extension.

Another way to do this is to - Open a folder>Tools>Folder Options>View and untick 'Hide extensions for known file types'. Apply changes. Now put in an extension.

you can still use mpeg videos for website

you can capture it in email quality , so u can record video more than ten min. with 2MB,so it can let people save the video if they like it.but if u like mov keep using it

To find out the video codec using the QuickTime Player:

1. Open movie
2. Choose > Movie menu
3. Choose > Get movie properties
4. Choose > Video track, from the left menu
5. Choose > Format, from the right menu

The format the video track is encoded in will be shown.
