Hi, I have an urgent need to produce a short animation in a .AVI format. I actually have some .flc's that I could use and I was wondering if there was any utilities that would handle the conversion. I'd never even heard of a .AVI until this morning! (and they want it this afternoon!!) so any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated! thanks

Spencer, << FLC to AVI ?>> Chuck Jameson wrote recently: "FLC _to_ AVI is a built in section in Video for Windows. It's in the File Open dialog. here are some quirks about getting the time setting right. It skips my mind just where I saw them discussed – Adobe Premiere forum, maybe? AVI _to_ FLC, now that's what you need the Audio Visual Recorder for. Chuck Jameson Silver Tongue Software" jonas[adesk]

Excuse me for butting in…but, while you are on the subject of file conversions let me ask somebody this….does anyone know of any program that will convert a series of sequential .tga's into a Apple Quicktime format…yeah, yeah I know mixing Apples and oranges ( I mean PC's ), what's the world coming to….actually we have an Imix Videocube for editing and 4 pc's in our graphics room…it would be great to use the power of our networked 3D Studio machines for animation and then send the .tga's over the network , directly into the VideoCube never going to tape until dubs….any takers? Thanks for any info. Craig Meadows.

Craig, >> TGA's to Quicktime I'm not sure if the AudioVisual Recorder will do this. You might want to call InSync. Ang

Jonas, There is a great program on the mac called DeBabelizer that will (among lots of other things) convert a series of TGAs to Quicktime in your choice of 24/16/8 bits. You can also set it up to do batch manipulations of your files such as rescale, rotate, adjust, translate. It will also create a user defined catalog of files complete with file names and save the catalogs to a series of files. It is marketed by Equilibrium out of Sausolito 415.332.4343. If you need to convert on the PC side, I don't know. Terry Gilbert

Jonas, I just checked and DeBabelizer can read (and presumably write) FLI/FLC files.

Tim, thanks a bunch for the lead on "DeBabelizer", it sounds like it just might be what i've been looking for (other than the perfect woman that is)….I'll let you know how it works with our system. thanks again. Craig Meadows.
