I was at a SIGGRAPH meeting in San Francisco a couple of months ago where
someone from Apple was talking about a toolkit that converted from many
external datatypes over to QuickTime. They showed demos from Sun, various
PC formats, SGI, and a Cray-generated graphics image. This product is now
available through APDA (sorry I don't remember the exact title, but I
remember the cost was around $75). It apparently also contains a certain
amount of source code for doing these conversions on the host systems. I'm
certain .FLI conversion was supported, but my memory is hazy on .FLC.
Anyway… Apple is trying to push this out as part of their effort to make
QuickTime a cross-platform delivery standard…
Cheers,
Ramin.
[ P.S. I'm still waiting to hear about the PICS -> FLC variant…
Anyone… Anyone? ]
