I opened a .mkv movie file in QuickTime Pro and wanted to 'save as...' a .mov file, like someone on the forums said was possible, but the Save As ... option is greyed out.

Now what?

When I convert the .mkv with Turbo.264 it's all choppy, and when I convert it with VisualHub, it won't even start (get an error message)
 
You sure you have QT Pro first? Have you tried selecting the video from the bar?

When I first open an MKV I need to wait until it finishes loading before I can do anything, I then I click Save As.

Maybe your doing something wrong.

Yup, that was the problem.
Haha, patience really is a virtue.

Sorry for this thread.
