realmedia

a friend had project consisting of a number video files originally created by someone else. he passed them on to me for some further work.

i had them for a few weeks before i finally got the time to look at them.

realmedia.

i really wish the realmedia folks would give it up. from what i read nobody likes the format.

and now that i'm using a mac the format is even more useless. i am able to use realmedia on a mac.

i'm using ultra rm converter under crossover for mac. i use quite of few of aone's products. their software is rock solid and works great.

and crossover is nice too. i use it under linux also. i found that most windows software seems to run under it ok. when i started using the mac one of the first things i looked for was a good editor. found macvim right away, but the few editors i've tried pretty much sucked. i'll take another shot at it in the mean time i can use the editor i've been using since '91 in it's various incarnations. boxer 13. there's a few quirks running it under crossover on the mac, but i'm proficient with it and i'm going to have to find a mac based editor that's a lot better before i'm going to switch.
