#Animation Compressor
Hello, I just had a CD burned of a recently developed interactive
multimedia project so I could test performance of the quicktime
digital video. There is two different types of compressions (Cinepak
and Animation) used for the quicktime digital video. When I play teh
CD the cinapak movie is fine but the movie compressed with the
animation compressor studders in both the audio and video, can you
help me figure out why? I analyzed the movies with Premeire 4.0.1 and
here are the results:

[This movie played studdered from a 2X player. Why is there so many
dropped frames and why the weird durations? This movie consist of
Photoshop 3.0 generated still pict images]
Please help me get to the bottom of this problem.
PS – This project is cross-platform and I get the studdered effect on
both mac's and pc's. I have tested on many different machines and
have noticed that the aster the machine the less noticable the
problem is but it is, none the less, still there on all machines.
