Creating Screensaver .scr file

Question

Creating Screensaver .scr file

Does anyone know how to create a .scr file for Windows screensavers? Is there a way to export it directly from FCP, or use Compressor or QT Pro? I have created a movie for a client, but they would like a short clip in a screensaver and I really don't have a clue how to do this.

Any help would be appreciated,

Well,

I guess this means there's not a way to do this through any plug-in for FCP, Compressor, or QT Pro. Does anyone know of a 3rd Party App for the Mac that will let me do this?

Ok,

Well, I think I've found an application that will do this, but I can't get to the company's website to see if they have a version mac version available because of my Web Nanny where I work (offshore).

The app is called iScreensaver Designer 3. For anyone searching posts for a similar issue, I'll post an update when I get home on the first of the year. If anyone discovers an app that works well with FCP or even QT, please let me know.

Thanks,

Lawrence

Ok,

For anyone searching for an answer to the same problem, I can confirm that iScreensaver Designer 3 does indeed work on a Mac. It is obviously not as nice as plugin for Compressor, FCP or QT, but it works. And, I can export my screensaver creations to either windows or Mac compatible files.

Thanks for everyone who's looked at this trying to help. If I've stumped this forum, then there isn't an answer!
