: Does anyone know of a good way to convert Marathon or Aleph One
: films into Quicktime? I've been trying Snapz Pro (which came with my new
: TiBook- w00t!), but it seems to slow down the film replaying process to
: the point of being unusable. I've tried turning off OpenGL, putting it
: into low resolution, making the screen smaller, turning down the color
: depth- but nothing has made this actually work. Even if I slow down the
: replay, it seems to somehow catch the screen in mid-refresh, so that I'm
: looking one way in the top half of the screen, and looking the other way
: in the bottom half, or there's a rocket in the top half whose contrail
: should be in the bottom half, but gets cut off, etc.... Well, suffice it
: to say that it doesn't seem to work.
Have you tried Snapz Pro 2? What do you have the framerate set to in the prefs? If it's trying to capture at 30fps, that'll probably overtax the system regardless of how little CPU time Marathon is using (and it might be the same even when you slow down the playback; I don't know).
You also didn't mention capturing video and sound separately, or whether you maxed out the RAM on that TiBook.
