effect and dropped it on a clip. I then imported the canon file into the
effect and it came in fine just narrow. Scaling the H to 1.125 fills the
frame horizontally and looks correct so I guess the way I brought the .mov
in AvidFX doesn't do any square vs. non square correction. I'll chalk that
up to my lack of experience with AvidFX. Does the fact that I can import a
QT .mov of the H.264 Canon file mean that AvidFX on a mac is able to access
.mov files through the 64bit QT app? I am booting in the 32 bit kernel but
as I've confirmed before on this list the MC 6 along with any other 64bit
apps will run in 64bit mode. AvidFX 6.0.3 must be 64 bit to run in mc 6 so
does that mean it can only use 64bit QT as the conduit to access .mov files
or could AvidFX 6.0.3 be accessing .mov's through 32 bit QT? If as I
suspect it is using 64bit QT why can't the Pan and Zoom effect at least on
the mac side be made to be compatible with pre V6 Pan and Zoom effects. I
guess the next test should be to create an AvidFX effect on a pre V6 system
and see if that translates to the V6 system.
