So, bobw -- did your conversion ever finish? How long did it take? And how well does the result play on your mac?
It never did. I gave up trying to convert to Cinepak from the LC, so I tried to make a 16 color and a 256 color uncompressed file. Both attempts to convert the file ended up in the computer crashing, so I just used a Windows box at the library to do the conversion and then made the resulting file into a MOV with Movieplayer 2.5 on the G4. Still, I plan to do my next conversion on the LC itself. I think the reason why the Cinepak conversion didn't finish was because I didn't have Virtual Memory turned on. Silly me. :I
