Thanks Tom
We are working on an IBM Windows platform so couldn't use Qualifiers at
present, although I gather there is a Windows version in development.
But tell me, can you import both the video recording and a written
transcript of the interview into Qualifiers and synchronise them with
time codes, such that you can click on a segment of video data and
retrieve the relevant bit of the transcript and vice versa?
Thanks
Julie

Regarding,
> 2. handling large video files in multimedia packages (2)
In the College of Education at the University of Hawaii we would
probably handle this analysis using "Qualifiers" on the Macintosh
platform. Probably we would compress the video using free iMovie down
to MPEG4 files. Audio monaural, 22kHZ, 16 bit, uncompressed. All using
the QuickTime codecs. If the video isn't that imjportant for analysis,
use a smaller screen size and greater compression. The trick is to get
everything on one big hard drive if possible. This isn't necessary,
however. "Qualifiers" will reference the drive, file, and frame.
You can find "Qualifiers" at
http://hisii.hawaii.edu/qualifiers/qualifiers.html for $35.
Aloha,
Tom
