I have created a D7 movie that uses video. The project will only be used on a Windows PC....any thoughts out there on if there is better stability in using one video format over another ?

I realize that to use Quicktime, you have to install it and AVI you don't, but I see alot of windows CDs using quicktime video

Thanks,
Hannah
 
Hi HannahLana, both .MOV and .AVI are excellent, but as you say if the project will be used just for PC you better use AVI... why? well if you use MOV files you must to add an Xtra (qt) at projector and it´ll be larger (file size) than the project that contains AVI (AVI projects doesn´t need xtras when you are creating projector).

So, as you said... if your project will executed just in PC i strongly reccomend you that use AVI´s

Cheers!
