Quicktime Setup

If you'd like to use Video1 or other Quicktime codecs, you'll need Quicktime installed on your machine.

1. Download and install Quicktime for Windows - don't install any of the Optional features (Web Plugin, Quicktime for Java, etc), as they're a bit of a security risk today in 2017.

2. Once installed you'll need to enable legacy codecs.

   a. In Windows, go to Control Panel and search for QuickTime. Open the Quicktime (32bit) Control Panel.

   b. Click the Advanced tab and check Enable encoding using legacy codecs

   c. Press OK to accept the options

3. Test it! Jump into the bin directory for the project and run the following:

   QTConverter.exe .\Profiles\Quadra.xml PlaceHolder.mp4 Test.mov

   This should print the progress it is making in the conversion and produce a Sorenson compressed Quicktime file called Test.mov. If you have any errors please raise an issue in Github.
