Hi Lars,
I'm pretty sure that you need a streaming server.
This might or might not be the case. I didn't had the time to set up
a QT/DarwinStreamingServer but I checked the functionality using the
following stream:
rtsp://a1303.l1857048516.c18570.g.lq.akamaistream.net/D/1303/18570/
v0001/reflector:48516 (this is NASA TV - I asume they're using a QTSS
or similar)
that stream works fine in QuickTime Player but doesn't work using the
Movie Loader patch (I get that hang again). A hang is a serious
problem IMHO and should be fixed. But I doubt that Apple still will
release a fix for Leopard. Should I file a bug report nevertheless?
Then you say you had success on SnowLeopard. Maybe it's time to
upgrade for me. Until this is possible (I have some SW that is still
problematic under SnowLeopard) I think I can live with using a beta
of my v002 Movie Player from vade (http://002.vade.info/) which works
like a charm even without a QTSS.
QT Broadcaster, as far as I understand it, only records/provides
the unicast/multicast, but not an (RTSP) stream, which is what QC
needs.
This is where the QT/Darwin Streaming server comes in.
Another option would be using the excellent Wirecast app (http://
www.telestream.net/wire-cast/overview.htm), which contains an
integrated streaming server.
Using this setup, I had no problems displaying streaming video
(coming from a URL beginning with rtsp://) inside Quartz Composer*.
Unfortunately its a tad expensive.

* tested in SNL/QC4, though

Hi,
I am new to the list and I don't know if this has already been
discussed here. At least a search in the archives brought up
nearly nothing on this topic.
I did the following: I wired up one Movie Loader patch and a
Billboard patch by simply connecting the Image outlets. Everything
worked so far when entering a path to a normal self contained
movie. But as soon as I entered the path of the streaming movie I
saved from QuickTime Broadcaster the whole Quartz Composer
Application locked up so that I had to force quit it. I tried
using a .sdp file and a reference movie instead - same result. The
streaming movie and the .sdp file worked fine in QuickTime player.
This makes me wonder if I missed something obvious. Below the
Asynchronous Mode checkbox (which I had checked) it says: "This
allows audio playback as well as support for streaming movies". It
didn't work in my case :-(
I use Quartz Composer 3.1 on Leopard (10.5.8) and did run
QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3 on the same machine (for testing
purposes, the final setup will have QTB on a different location of
course).
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Lars
