If this is a one-time project, Amber,why not take the files to a video
operation that does this sort of thing for a living? Might be cheaper
than forking over for programs you might not use again.
I used one to transfer a PAL taketo NTSC for a friend--the charge
wasn't too much IIRC.

I know this is a long-shot, but could there possibly be any
incompatibility due to the different video format that her British
relatives originally used to record the video? I know the computer
formats should be the same from country to country

play a PAL format video on my VCR but if it was digitized on a
computer, I believe I can access it on my PB, similar to what I am
doing now.
Ah, there is you problem. You cannot mix 25fps (PAL) with 29.97fps
(NTSC) on a DVD or within a single video file. You will need

this for me with a small file before I go ahead and buy the two.
Another suggestion was to use Toast to convert them somehow but so
far, I have not been able to make this work. It keeps reverting to
PAL format because the video file is in Pal format of course.
Is there someway

wish to pay the $ for the 2 QT pieces, you *could* play them with VLC
(especially if played in a window), capture them again with the
SnapzPro demo, and have them in a regular video format that iMovie
should take. I'm not an iMovie guy but that should
Hello again,
Thanks for all your help with this everybody !!!
I have tried the FFMPEGFX application but running into trouble as it
cannot seem to convert the video into anything I can use in iDVD.
It is the relatives in England whose clips are giving me trouble.
Both of them have PC's

Did you try the Streaming/Exporting Wizard in VLC? Looking at the
available formats, there's MPEG-1, 2 and 4, and H.264, among others. I
think MPEG-4 and H.264 will only play in QT Pro, but wouldn't MPEG-1 and
-2 open in standard QT?
You've got it backwards. MPEG4 and H.264 play in standard QT

Hi Caleb,
Thank you for your input
As Caleb incorrectly posted, MPEG-1 playback is and has been
built-in to Quicktime for many versions.
Eh, I got it halfway right, at least. I've never had reason to work
with MPEG-1, so I was playing the guessing game there. The MPEG-4
stuff is all correct, though.
Amber, I'd try opening
