I did the video with Mac's iMovie and it includes both still and motion video. This version has a flaw, namely that later in the video audio gets out of sync with video, apparently because the audio was recorded at 12-bit rather than 16-bit. </div> <bR> <bR> </tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP WIDTH="239"><div> <IMG SRC="0c1c8960.jpg" border=0 width="200" height="150" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> I may be able to correct the problem with iMovie 4 shortly or with Final Cut Express.
