i would love to view it, but unfortunately its needs Windows Media Player..

[Scott]

Good job on the video Dave!

Rob....thought you had a PC somewhere there, or is it the doorstop I'm thinking about?

[Rob]

thought you had a PC somewhere there, or is it the doorstop I'm thinking about?

there's a difference????

I love seahorses, they are so cool! Thanks for sharing with us!

[JustDavidP]

Yeah...that's the other problem...the software I use only exports in WMV. I'm pretty sure that the Sony Handicam Software gives me other options. We shall see.

Wild... thanks for the feedback. It does show that seahorses are not boring, inactive fish. They are actually quite hard to photograph because they are always in motion.

Hello JustDavidP, awesome video!

[Scott]

there's a difference????

sometimes there really isn't a difference.

So, do you have any suggestions to us folks stuck on a PC for video software? That could export to something ya MAC people can view?

[Scott]

Yeah...that's the other problem...the software I use only exports in WMV. I'm pretty sure that the Sony Handicam Software gives me other options. We shall see.

Dave, I know what you mean. I used Windows Movie Maker, and I suspect you did also. That only exports to WMV...gotta love Microsoft.

I'm looking to see if I can find some cheap software that can do the same type of thing....but actually allow me to export to a format that anyone (PC, MAC, Linux) can play.

My camera saves my video in AVI format....extreemly large for sharing on the net.

[Rob]

anything in mpeg, or mov format would work.

i can download and play wmv files with another application, but that website has the WMP built into the webpage, so it doesnt allow me to play it using my third party application (Video LAN Client)

[Scott]

don't mean to get too sidetracked...but what do you use on your MAC to do your vid's?

[Rob]

i use iMovie, which is part of Apple's iLife suite
which comes free with all Macs, and its rocks..

[Scott]

I gotta get me one of them Mac's....

[Rob]

lol.. yep.. you sure do..

"once you go Mac.. you never go back"

[Scott]

[Reefbaby]

[Rob]

[RocketSeason]

Wow. I love videos of tanks. This makes me want seahorses now!

[JustDavidP]

com'mon dave, everything that lives in saltwater is addictive...

This is true! I am now (at 30) just admitting to myself that mermaids are not real and I shall never have one
