K, I'm uploading it to my site at http://www.brutus-music.com/Mike/Wail of Gunfire.mp4. Should be up in about a half an hour. It's 70MB. I can make it smaller if that's too large.

Eh, I redid the encode with a much more reasonable size of 40MB. The quality is about the same. Want that one instead?

Here's the 40MB version, if you'd rather go that route.

Quicktime can play h.264 in MP4s, but it doesn't support all the options and might not be able to play everything. I have a lot of h.264 MP4 AMVs that won't play in Quicktime. Not to mention that Quicktime is crappy and slow, at least on the Windows side. I don't know, maybe we all should create Quicktime compatible MP4s, but I say it's Apple's fault for not having Quicktime fully support it.

I'm all for h.264 though. I prefer using CCCP with MPC or just simply VLC for playback. I just tested playing back a MP4 in QT and CPU usage was 50-80%. Same MP4 in MPC (using CCCP and high amount of PP on) was only 45-60% CPU usage. Without PP, CPU usage was 15-40%. Same MP4 in VLC was only 4-20% CPU usage (now thats what I call efficient ^_^!). If QT supposedly decodes video in higher quality, I can't tell. I think I'll stay well away from QT thank you very much!

Holy crap! I found your problem: over 3 minutes of credits! :shock: Plus some of your credits are cutoff at the end.

:| QuickTime doesn't support high profile (yet -- it will as soon as Blu-ray drives come to Macs, which probably won't be long now), but it supports main and baseline profiles just fine.
