Importing PowerPoint QuickTime Videos is inconsistently successful --- WHY?
I'm trying to use QuickTime videos created by PowerPoint in some of my iMovies. To get better resolution of fine detail, I've been rendering at 1280 x 960. Usually, the QT file gets anti-aliased in some manner when I import it, and all is good. However, lately, I'm getting very jaggy results!
I've noticed that when things work normally, a Get Info window on the QT file exported from PowerPoint will list the Codecs Sprite, Color Balance Filter, and Base. When the imported video is jaggy, the Get Info window on the QT file exported from PowerPoint will list only the Codecs Sprite and Base.
Any clues? I NEED these slides to look smooth, and they have always looked great until recently. Now, sometimes things work, and sometimes they don't!
