At some point in 7.x series, Apple seems to have stopped support for
Play method on the "QuickTime.QuickTime" object. Seems that overlapped intro
of the "quickTimePlayerLib.quickTimePlayerApp" object.
This works on recentish versions of QT, but only if QT already running: you
have to have demo.mov in same folder (should be in last com distro, if not
rename test.mov to demo.mov.
local qtPlayerApp = ;;+
com.create_object("quickTimePlayerLib.quickTimePlayerApp")
local qtPlayer = qtPlayerApp.Players(1)
local sMov = scriptfolder ++ ?"/demo.mov"
qtPlayer.OpenURL(sMov)
local mov = qtPlayer.QTControl.Movie
mov.play
;mov.Tracks.Count
;mov.Tracks(i).Format
quit
Need to figurer out how to get it to work when the create_object call causes QT
to launch.
