Hi. I'm doing a project for a friend/business that was shot on DV and needs to be displayed on an old slow PC (400mhz). What would be the best way to display video on a computer like that? I have looked at 3ivx which seems to be pretty fast but I don't think even that will do. Since I know Quicktime on the PC isn't as fast as on the Mac, I'm looking at Real player and Windows media too.

If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I vote WMV. Get yourself a copy of Cleaner and use it to make your windows media file. It gives a few choices of compression and, at the higher settings at least, the quality stays pretty good. Plus it's drag & drop simple.

I've used it to convert several movies that have been played on older PCs with WMP version 7 and they played quite well.

what's wrong with good old MPEG?
