VIDEOSTUDIO X8, X9, X10, X2019 WON'T ACCEPT MOV FILES

[tletter]

Seems like we needs drop .MOV file format. Yes, we have a cameras and photo aparatus but what we can do?

There is no need to "drop .MOV file format" when working with VS unless your "cameras and photo aparatus" is producing video clips that VS cannot ingest. Is that the case?

Please post a sample .MOV clip from your camera that shows the issue.

See my earlier post in this thread from April 2019 - nearly 3 years ago.
The OS includes many common "community" functions that any software can use, once it's installed. For such functions, the Application doesn't need it "embedded" but often if it's necessary it will install them: and VS does, see the re-distributables in the programs and features list. There are others that are commonly used but not MS product, and the mov codec is one such. Once the Mov codec from Apple is installed, any software app can use it - and they do.
If you have a camera that produces output in a mov format, and many don't, rather than bleat about the lack of a mov codec within VS, just download and install the free mov codec and use it.
