Result Code = -50

[Kaspar Hauser]

Using Toast 8.0.3 (new, not upgraded)

 

Mac OS 10.4.11 (Tiger)

 

When trying to edit a QuickTime movie, I export the edited version to a QuickTime file -- and everything appears to go fine until the very last moment, when an error message says:

 

Couldn't complete the last command because of a Mac OS error. Result code = -50

 

Tried it several times (including rebooting), same thing.

 

Tried exporting as an mp4 fie; same thing.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks....

Something is damaging the file as a result of the edit but I don't know what that would be. I tested with some of my videos and didn't have this problem. I suggest editing the video in iMovie, MPEG Streamclip or QuickTime Pro and using that in Toast rather than using Toast's edit function on that video. Sorry, all I can think of doing is a work around.

Thanks very much for your efforts.
