hi, i was just wondering if it is possible to edit the mac wlcome video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkZCtPSAGOw)
as edit i mean change the words in it (the welcomes)
i tried opening the transition .nib files but they are locked and wont let me edit them because i dont have the correct permissions, i change permissions to read and write but it still doesnt work.
so basically can you unlock them .nib files (which im guessing controls the text)

It's a video file. It's not actually rendered/composited live. So the only way to get the video with other words is to recreate the video in the compositor of your choice (Motion, After Effects, Maya?, 3DS Max, Flame etc) and change the words :D.
 
Oh, this is btw where you can find the video.

It's buried... deep.


Open your HDD, then go to /System/Library/CoreServices. Find the Setup Assistant.app, right-click on it and click "show package contents" then go to Contents/Resources. Find TransitionSection.Bundle, right click on it and click "show package contents" then go to Contents/Resources/. The movie (intro.mov) and sound (intro-sound.mp3) are separate files. I put them together in iMovie and put them on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyiwwfJInpE
