Hi.

The movie player is not compiled for 64 bit, and the new QC 4.0 editor is a 64 bit app in 10.6. You can get the latest beta of the movie player which has some nicer features, and loads in 64 bit (I think the latest public beta has 64 bit mode support, but some features do not work at all in 64 bit mode). However, its highly suggested that you run things in 32 bit mode if you want to use my movie player (get info on QC 4.0 editor -> 32 bit mode). Due to severe changes/shortcomings of Quicktime in 64 bit mode in 10.6, some *totally drastic* changes need to be made for Quicktime Playback to perform decently at all in 10.6 (a totally separate background process has to be created just to decode movies, and frames need to be passed using a totally new API called IOSurface that seems made to tackle these shortcomings). Its really quite a shame. I ought to put it out anyway. For now, you can find it at:

v002 MoviePlayer.plugin.zip

As for the screen capture, due to some issues with differing pixel formats, I cant seem to get context sharing working with QC editor. the screen capture works very well for apps that use QC technology with a full screen context. I've taken this up with the OpenGL mailing list, and it seems like sharing contexts from an initial windowed OpenGL context to a new, created later full screen context will always fail, which is an issue for how the screen capture works. I've tried work arounds with some new methods in 10.6, but have yet to have success. If anyone has any pointers id love to know, but for now, it will work in VDMX etc, but not in the QC editor. Sorry about that. I was hoping it would be doable in 10.6, or maybe im doing something stupid...

Thanks. BTW feel free to email me directly as its slightly off topic for the mailing list, and I prefer no capitals :)

Hi list!
I have been updating my patches these days for the QC4 but I have found that Movie player doesn't show on the lib list and also with screen capture,( VADE's plug ins) it does show on the list but once I drag it in edit window, it doesn't appear. So I am having trouble with this two plugins. I have also update the other plugins such Rutettra and it loads fine.

Any body else have same problem? Any idea to fix it?
Thank you!
