Editing Making Movies (section)

==Movies on a Mac ==
===QT Pro===
On a Mac, it's easy enough to just fire up QuickTime Player and select 
 File->Open Image Sequence
This will prompt you to select the first png file in a folder and load all other pngs with the same base name in that folder. Then simply export these frames as a movie with any of the available quicktime codecs at a frame rate you like.

===Alternative===
The above requires QT Pro ($25).  For free you can use this: [http://www.likelysoft.com/framed/].

===In a Presentation===
You don't need to convert the PyMol scene to a movie, just save session as a .psw (pymol show file) with the scenes embedded in there. Then from within Power|Point just set up a hyperlink (Insert hyperlink) and point it to the .psw file. In presentation mode when you click on the hyperlink pymol automatically boots and you can scroll thru your scens like a full screen powerpoint presentation. You have to make sure that you have pymol installed on 
your presentation computer (and you have your psw file)  and just click OK when powerpoint warns of the perils of non-microsoft products. the 
final scene will return to your powerpoint presentation without any effort.
