Hi All,
I'm making a Sales Presentation which includes a few AVI files of various lengths.
All the AVI's play perfectly when I use the Preview.
I then used "Build" to finalize and then burn to CD. When I play the CD from my CD Player, some AVI's play S..L..O..O..W.. like Molasses, while some play perfectly fine.
I realize that the CD Player will be a lot slower than my Hard Drive, but shouldn't ALL the AVI's play slowly??
Now you might think that the larger files would be the ones to slow down, because they have more to load, but strangely, I have a 154 meg file that runs perfectly, yet my opening AVI of only 18 MEGS seems like it's running on a Pentium 90!!!
My Processor is an AMD 1.2 gig with over 700 Megs of RAM. Running two 60 GIG hard drives in a RAID array (I'm not bragging. Just giving you the facts, Maam!)
Since I will be distributing the CD's to clients,that most probably have slower machines, I must assure myself that these videos run properly.
Both files that I mentioned above are 640x480 frames encoded with CINEPAK with Audio at 44khz with 8 or 16 bit stereo.
What other factors should I be looking at?
What steps should I be taking to make sure these files play, on a minimum 400Mhz processor?
Any thoughts?
THNX
