So, I have this .wmv file (a bit over 300mb) that I wanted to convert to QT format so I can burn it to DVD through iDVD. So I got the Flip4Mac player that will allow me to play .wmv files in QT. Got the .wmv in QT, clicked on Export, set it up to export it to a Quicktime movie, and let it go...it was going really slow (which is understandable), so I let it run overnight...when I woke up, it was in the same spot it was in before I went to bed.
As a test, I tried doing just a "save as" .mov file on the wmv...and that took about 3 seconds...but I removed flip4mac (just as a test) and tried to play the new .mov file in QuickTime and it didn't work...said it was missing software, yada yada yada.
Has anyone tried doing this? Is it because the file is too big? Any suggestions to help out? I have a 15" pb, 1.67ghz, 1 gig of RAM if that helps at all.
Thanks in advance!
