Update... I was on a different forum, and someone was asking about what settings to use to export QT files frome Vegas.

I'm still trying to get a good quality QT file output, while retaining a decent file size.

Since I had to do it, I've added a bit of level/gamma adjustements.

QT (11 megs): http://www.creativecola.com/hc1/media/wasp_qt.mov

Please note, as far as outputing my QT file, I'm not using any of the newer QT formats (H.264 or anything), because I've noticed on my iBook, with an early version of OSX installed, I am not able to upgrade to the QT v7 player, which I required to view newer QT files. So for other users out there that are like me, and do not want to purchase a new OS upgrade just so that they can view a video file, I stick to older QT formats. But I must admit, I like the colourization better on the QT file.
