Video : best format for video files (better performance in pd) is MJPEG, this compression is better packed in .avi for windows and .mov for mac. -

i did it by streaming it with some app (cant remember, sorry) to vlc on the computer and than capture the window with camtwist to turn it in a virtual webcam which can be openend by [pix_film]. I use OSX 10.8.5.
