Mov format videos are jerky in Preview screen-Why?

[goddi]

Greetings,

This topic might have been brought up before but I could not find it in searching the Forums. And not being able to search on a 3 letter word does not help.

My question is, why do MOV format video clips play jerky in the Mini-Player (preview window)? Nor does it play smoothly in the Convert window. Yes, if I Convert the clip, it plays fine. But I'd like to be able to preview the MOV clip before I choose to convert it.

It plays fine in video players. I attached a Media-info screenshot of an MOV clip that is the original and one that has been Converted.

Gary,

H.264 video at 1920x1080 is heavy for PicturesToExe.

Video players simply decodes video, and in PicturesToExe the program should render video clip together with other objects of a slide. Additionally PicturesToExe synchronize timing of video clip with timing of presentation. Currently we can't do anything with it.

I recommend to convert video clip as PicturesToExe recommends.
