Choppy MOV, crash when importing MOV to Corel pro x3

Post by joel2007 »

Hello and Happy Holidays!
I'm hoping someone can help with a playback issue I'm having with x3 when I import MOV files from an IPhone 4s onto an HP pavillion dv7 4270us laptop with 4 gb, 1.80ghz.
The playback is very choppy and almost paralyzed, while the audio does fine.
Also, x3 constantly shuts down with a brief error message telling me to contact corel support.
Should I be converting these video clips before I import them into my capture folder on corel?
I'm trying to preserve quality since the iphone4s takes a pretty nice video, definitely rivals my canon dv and most HD flip cams I've seen.
I apologize if I'm leaving a lot out. So far, this is a hurdle I wouldn't mind getting past so I can make a short film of family and friends.
Thank you!
Joel

It sounds like you have a newer version of quicktime installed on your PC. You will need to down grade to quicktime 6.0 to avoid this crash. Visit Corels Knowledge Base and search for quicktim 6.0.

Thanks. I downgraded to quicktime 6.0 and now Corel crashes as soon as it starts and my Windows themes have changed from qttask.exe.
Any suggestions for the next hoop? Because I'm ready to jump so this program will run.
