Subject:[SF 6.0] Tip - Saving AVI files in the right format
Posted by: JimGrubbs

Just a tip so someone else can avoid my user error:

If you are editing the sound in a video file (*.avi), you must save the file in the same format as the original file. For some reason, the default file save is a compressed format. I have to select NTSC DV for normal USA video format save.

I could not find anything in the help files that addresses the correct file format to save in. Since I was upgrading from SF 4.5 (which didn't have these file save options), I was originally confused when I got the message "File saved in a compressed format".


So, a word to the wise.
