    Hi! Thank you so much for your tutorials!

    I had one problem though, when Saving the Render output file i cant save as a “MOV Quick Time” -file.
    I have Quicktime installed on my computer so i don´t understand why it doesnt give me that option?

    Can you help med with this please?

    Thanks!
    David

      Hi David, Sorry for the late reply.
      The same problem comes in After Effects and Premiere also. If you don’t have Quick Time installed properly in your system then such problem occurs. So the solution is to install the latest Quick Time properly in your system. I don’t know why your Max is not showing the Quick Time option even after installing the plugin! I would suggest to re-install it once again and then see how does it work. I would also suggest to install K lite mega codec pack and VLC also.
