Exporting .qt files to .avi

[DaveT]

If the files don't play in QuickTime Player, they could also be using Apple ProRes or another codec that Apple doesn't support under Windows, like DVCProHD.

If it's the latter, they will actually open in Edius because it provides it's own DVCProHD codec.

I can play DVCProHD .mov files in Edius (HD) just fine.

do they play in quicktime player? if yes, save as avi from within QT player

They did play in quicktime and I was able to save them, but only as .mov files which of course play in Edius, so thanks for that, job done!

I've been sent some quicktime files which rather than having a .mov extension have a .qt extension. Neither Edius or Procoder seems to want to recognise them. Does anyone have any idea please how I can convert them into .avi files, or into any format that I can use in Edius?

.qt is usually panoramic files, might be hard to transcode them.
