If you're trying to use the codec "None", it will fail under OS X 10.3.9+ and QT 6.1+. Is this what you're trying? If so, I recommend using a JPEG compressor and Max quality or, aternatively, I wrote a little trap for this in my code. Ugly, but it works. Unfortunately, this is not macro executable from ImageJ, as the built-in code is. See the following:
