I'm wondering what software people use to display their pymol-made movies to best effect. I tried embedding the movies in powerpoint, but I don't like the performance drop. Running the movies from a movie player like quicktime just doesn't seem integrated enough if you want to interact with your movies. I'm picturing a scenario where the movies are seamlessly embedded in the presentation and scene-changes can be prompted by a mouseclick. I know I've seen someone do this before, but I don't know what kind of software they were using. I'd like to start with a still image, click my mouse have the protein rotate and zoom in on an active site, wait while I discuss everything important, then move on to something else when I click the mouse again. In addition, things like labels and text can be overlaid over the movies and respond to choreographed mouseclicks as well. Any ideas?
