Image & Idea Blog for Design & Digital Arts Studio project 2. Largely set to contain a lot about wildlife and climate change and how they are represented in projection mapping/videos, with maybe a bit of cookie science in it too...

How do you solve a problem like codecs and formatting?

Other than screaming, I’m lost right now.

The format I had ‘Frozen Planet’ in turns out to have been unsupported in AE, so I decided to run with downloading the episodes i need from iTunes [thinking they would be high quality uncompressed files if I got the HD ones] but I have learned my lesson there too. Bastages will not let you play with their videos at all, even if you save them out in to .Mov files.

So - I’m not hitting the bottom of my barrel of “ways around this”. I’m trying to save the M4u’s on the mac from QT as .Mov’s, then convert them to basic MPEG’s. If by some off stretch of luck that works - I’ll be screaming for joy.
