Strange Mac-made movie behavior - DaviDC. - 11-21-2010

Yesterday I made a movie using iMovie HD. It's 1:18 long with a music soundtrack & was timed so that the song & video ended together.

Originally I saved it as an mp4 & it played fine on my Mac mini. Later I copied it to my Dell mini 9 & when I played it there, the music ended several seconds before the video. No matter how I transferred it to the Dell, the same thing always happened.

I opened it in Quicktime 7 & saved it as a Quicktime movie, copied that version to the Dell & it played just like it was supposed to. I'll be using that format from now on.

What application did you play it on on the Dell?
Is the Dell running Windows or MacOS?
Thx.
