Technical Q&AQTW 03 - Cross-Platform Issues, Conditions for Playing Macintosh Movies on Windows (1-May-95)Q Are there any differences different between Windows movies and Macintosh movies? How can we get Macintosh movies to play on Windows? A There's no difference between Macintosh and Windows movies. The conditions that need to be met to get Macintosh movies to play on Windows are: * The movie must be self-contained. * The movie must be in a single-fork file. No limitations apply other than these. We've successfully converted movies using Movie Converter in the QuickTime Developer Toolkit.
