Windows Media (VC-1 AP) Output

(Windows Vista Only)

Pro Tools lets you output Windows Media (VC-1
AP) video to NTSC or PAL monitors via any de-
vice that is compatible with standard Direct-
Show output.

Bouncing the Video Track to a
QuickTime Movie

When you have finished your final mix and syn-
chronized your audio events to the movie, you
can bounce the main video track (QuickTime or
Avid video) and a mono or stereo mixdown of
your session to a new QuickTime movie.

You can choose from a variety of standard
QuickTime codecs, which are fully compatible
with other QuickTime applications.

To bounce video and audio in the video track to a
QuickTime movie:

1

Finalize your mix.

2

Make sure the video track you want to bounce

is currently the main video track. (The track’s
Video Online button must be highlighted blue.)

3

Make sure that all of the audio tracks you want

to include in the bounce are audible (not muted
or inactive).

4

Assign the output of each of the tracks you

want to include in your bounce to the same ste-
reo output or bus path.
