Hello Multimedia group.

I am currently developing a project using HyperCard and QuickTime. We will
translate the program to IBM and ToolBook. The problem I have had is trying to
find a way to get the QuickTime movies over to something ToolBook can use.

Asymetrix has told be that MicroSoft has a beta version of something that
will translate JPEG movies into AVI movies which can then be used as DVI type
movies in ToolBook. Has anyone heard about this and willing to share their 
knowlege of this. Also, does anyone have an e-mail address for MicroSoft?

Thanks,
john chadwick

While the AVI stuff is still in beta there is a product that
should meet your needs that has been on the market for a
while.  CoSA (the Company of Science & Art, 401-831-2672,
cosa@applelink.apple.com) has a set of software called PACo
Tools that will port Quicktime movies to Windows and Sun
Sparkstations.
