• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Lightroom generated video playback problem with Quicktime

Your Mac's Specs
iMac 27" 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, OS 10.6.8
I made a couple of 1080p videos (mp4) of slideshows with music in Adobe Lightroom3 but when I play them with Quicktime they look horrible. Both the text in the captions and the photos themselves are blurry. Plus, the music no longer syncs with the timing of the transitions. I have read that this is a common problem with Quicktime so I tried to download VLC media player on my Macbook but it got hung up on in the "cleaning up" stage of the download and the download never did complete and I had to do a force quit. This happened the 3 times I tried to download. Has anyone else had any problems installing the Mac-specific version?? (the Windows version downloaded just fine on my PC) My Macbook has 10.5.8, 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo, 2.5 GB. I am reluctant to try this on my newer iMac until I know there isn't a problem in general (my iMac is squeaky clean at this point and don't want to mess it up)
Thanks
Diane
