Hi everybody!
I have to make a Quicktimemovie which should be encoded with Mpeg. Does anyone have experience on that?

Thank u for ur reply.
I have heard of Quicktime movies that are encoded as MPEG but still are ".mov"-files.
I´ve tried to produce such a quicktime movie with cleaner 5.0: I selected "Quicktime" on Outpout, and video, audio and Mpeg on "tracks".
But the codec still is sorenson, and the Quicktimemovie still has these typical stripes in faster Movement in the movie.
But I have to produce a movie that has the Quality and size of a ".mpg"-movie, but still is a ".mov"-file.
We need this movie for a Multimedia-Projekt made with Macromedia-Director.
I guess I need another software to cope this task. Which software did u use?
Thank u for ur efforts so far.
Best regards.

Cleaner will do the job very well:
In the Output tab, under 'Format' select MPEG-1, not Quicktime. You'll end up with an MPEG-1 file that will play in Quicktime on Mac and usually Windows Media player on PC. You'll find that on a Mac you can have either the .mov or .mpg file name and it'll still play in QT. On Windows a .mov filename will open it in QT and a .mpg will open in WMP.
Filename extensions (.mov, .mpg, .aif etc) are not important on Mac but are usually essential on Windows
If you want to create a .mov at the same quality of MPEG-1, use Sorenson 3 and up the datarate utill you reach the desired quality.

does sorenson 3 also create these for sorenson codec typical stripes when fast movements are shown in the movie?
