While your fixing things for me, on the same sort of subject, when importing the ffmpeg ProPres files into Final Cut I allways get this warning message: "The following media files are not optimized for Final Cut Pro." Any ideas of ways to fix this warning me, I know you can turn off the warning in FCP, just wondered if there was a way to 'fool' FCP into 'liking' the files. Kind regards. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
