Hmm, didn't think to try ffmpeg. *blush* I was trying to export a bunch of photos as a slideshow that would play on a BD player. This was on another MBP, which had iLife, actually. I was able to do it on the windows side pretty easy. I'd like to figure it out tho. Can you walk me through creating a HD slide show from a bunch of photos, assuming that I have iLife (which I do, on the other MBP)? >>> hmmm and since every mac comes with iPhoto which does importing and iMovie >>> that's done HD video ever since 2006, I see an issue with your statements. >> >> OS X 10.6 doesn't seem to come with iPhoto.

I'll look in the box when I'm near it again. Looking on the site, it's clear it should have come with the MPB. Pretty lame that the OS itself doesn't come with squat for digital editing tools, I'MHO. ;) Wanna import photos? Use the Preview app, and do 'em one at a time!
