this is something of a follow-up on my peregrinations with this problem.
I have been unable to compose a QTime movie of slides with QT Pro alone. I only get the first slide, no show. But I have succeeded with
iView, a shareware program. The show plays nicely on my computer.
However, I cannot burn this via Toast to a VCD. Toast will not accept the file, says there is no audio file present? Toast "ReadMe" says iMovie is necessary.. Anyone with experience here? Is there another way to convert the file wihout iMovie?
I'm running 9.0.4, don't really want to upgrade (?) to 10.x, and don't really want to part with $50 to buy iMovie.

Hrm. Without iMovie you'd need Cleaner, which is even more expensive... you need to convert the movie to an MPEG1. Even if there is no audio, it needs an audio track in order to be recoginsed as an intact MPEG1 (VCD) file.

thanks for the reply. I am getting closer to the goal .
Could iMovie do the conversion, and could I simply leave the audio track blank, or record it with nothing? Is that possible?
