(highly compressed) movie

Post by statius »

Here's my GSP, Horace. Sorry for the quality, I had to compress it quite a bit to make it manageable. He's 2 weeks old (in this box). 1.5 inches, in a 20G; SP = 1.009-.01, 0nitrites, 0amm, less than 5 nitrates. Shares it for now with 4 Cichlid fry I bred previous to getting him. Thought he might eat them, but they all leave each other alone for now (trying to decide what to do with the fry). I'll move him into a bigger tank this summer.

I have a mac with imovie. I imported the file as it was, avi (60mb), and then exported it as .mov (1.6mb). If I had Quicktime pro I could do the same thing, but I don't.

Try converting it to XVID. The compression/quality ratio is much better.
