Why is there a yellow tint on my Quicktime movies?

March 13, 2007 8:56 AM

I have been trying to use the application Photo To Movie to make a slideshow. I used it a couple of years ago (yes, paid for the license) and never had any problems. However, now, whenever I export a file (to make the slideshow a movie), the resulting movie has a yellowish tint to it upon playback in Quicktime or any other video application. This occurs with a wide variety of export options (compression levels, no compression, ratio, etc.)

The developer hasn't responded to my emails. Anyone have a clue? I'm on a dual G5 Mac running the latest versions of all software and OSX.

What version are you using?

This may be your problem. Open up a video, go to window and hit Show A/V Controls. There are color, tint, and other controls that may be screwing with your videos. Reset the settings, and that may work for you.

I'm using Photo To Movie v 4.0.5 and whatever most up to date version there is of QT Pro. I had the same problems with 4.0.3.

also, the AV controls solution didn't work. It's something in Photo To Movie or in QT (which, I'm assuming, is the conversion engine in PTM.)
