Yeah thats what I suspected... It's quite an insane move to drop such
feature, if you ask me!
I found out that there is no way access to such dialog using the cocoa
QtKit API either... Which is a shame, I guess it will come with
time....
Currently, you have to go back to SequenceGrabber (which is quite ugly
if you ask me) to do that....
I wanted to stay as much as possible inside QC for that particular
thing I am working on, but maybe I'll have to continiously pass the
image to QC from cocoa.
What I want to avoid is doing unnecessary work... Or doing something
that will break with the next OS update. I'm happy about Apple
renewing API's, but I'm not happy if that means I have to do double-
work.
Anyone knows if QTKit will have acces to device settings in the future
(Hopefully both programatically OR through a renewed standard user
dialog like the old one )? Maybe I should ask in the QuickTime list...
That would avoid me many many headaches!

Ahh, I remember. That was a Tiger-only thing. In Leopard, they
switched to using QTKit, and didn't add those options in it seems.
If you're looking for a way to programatically change those
settings, I'm assuming you're using QC inside an application you're
writing? If so, why not use QTKit yourself to control those
settings, and feed the video in through a published input?
Modifying the patch's video device parameters isn't supported, so
you'd have to resort to some nasty hacks to get that working.
