Compress QuickTime to MPEG 4
Function: Compresses QuickTime movies to MPEG-4 and places the files into the selected folder.
Author: Center Mid Software
Input: (Anything) QuickTime files
Output: (Anything)
Notes: Configure MPEG-4 compression settings in QuickTime Player before using this action. Warning: Make sure to pass files, not folders, to this action. The Filter Finder Items action, for example, could be used to make sure only QuickTime files are selected.
Update: Adds more flexible QuickTime compression features and is therefore renamed to Compress QuickTime Using Most Recent Settings.

I expect it’s just the holidays, but my actions and workflow haven’t been added here yet. They’re the featured download at the Apple Automator site, however.

Folks -
Look for new QuickTime Compress actions and workflow here on the site. I think most of you will be happy with the result…

How difficult would it be to write an automator that is a batch file convertor for QT that allows you to pick the export type and final location? Or do you need a separate one for each type of export you want?
I need a batch converter for quicktime to flv format.

I’m looking for a way to batch convert a bunch of videos for my iPod. I have QT Pro that has the special “Export to iPod” codex I just need a way to set it up to process more than one video at a time. Thanks!
