Rendering for M-JPEG

Dazza wrote on 11/2/2007, 7:20 PM

Has anyone had any experience with rendering an AVI for playback on a Digital Photo Frame which specifies M-JPEG for video please?
I have managed to render an AVI, in Vegas 8, using the PICVideo M-JPEG 3 Vfw Codec that refuses to play on the Frame. The file plays happily on Media Player. Thanks.

I don't have a digital photo frame to test with, but have you used the Quicktime MJPEG output settings?

Thanks Spot/DSE, I do not have the full version of Quicktime. I've tried several other conversion programs without success and I am reluctant to spend my hard-earned on something that may, or may not, work. Vegas 8 pro has a render template for M-JPEG which also does not seem to do the job. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this type of conversion.

So what does the photo frame's manual say? Use mjpeg AVI files? Use mjpeg MOV files? Seems like the documentation ought to say.

The manual indicates that it will play either M-JPEG avi or mov files. I have tried avi.
