hey everyone.. I am having really really bad issues and was wondering if anyone knew the issue:
I use a PC for capturing footage and a mac for editing. I use Fraps, then take the footage and stick it on a drive, then use my mac for editing the raw AVI files (i use perian and flip 4 mac to recognize the AVI files on a mac). It will edit these files in Final Cut.
So to this date I've had NO problems. Everythings just been soooooooooo smooth.
Suddenly.. .when i transfer some of the files (some not all- it's like Russian roulette) they have this WEIRD ARTIFACTING! The PC plays the files back totally fine, but my mac sees them as all screwed up. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v89/Ariella5353/weirdartifacting.png <---that's what my mac sees.
There's no way i want to deal with transfering these files to a file mac understands. I mean, that'd be last resort! All my footage is in 1440 by 900 aspect and converting them to mpeg 1 or 2 in that ratio is illegal and i don't want to deal with with crappy quality video. I want to stick with my avis.
i have no idea what's going on!!
If it helps, I realized lately there's been this weird weird corner yellow piece in all the video that WON'T play on the Mac. You can see it in the photo above. It's like, no matter what client of SL i download on my PC- that weird corner thing is there. What is that thing?? Does that have to do with this whole mess?
Anyway.. I'm ripping hairs out here.. so any help anyone can give will be greatly appreciated!!!
