Hi Greg,
A couple of things - cue points added to a QT video on a windows machine
using QTPro *don't* work. Brennan Young has a lot of QT info at
http://brennan.young.net/welcome.html or
http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/director/tips/qt/012.html or
http://www.director-online.com/accessArticle2.cfm?id=445
Having said that, I'm not sure now why I say that cue points created with
QTPro on Windows don't work. I know they didn't the last time I tried, but
perhaps that's changed ...
It seems that the problems you're experiencing are all on Windows. Did you
try re-installing QT? Was your D7 projector for Windows made with D7.02? Do
you start your (Windows) movie by setting "the soundDevice = QT3Mix"? Is the
QT member's "streaming" property set to TRUE?
Crashes at inconsistent times are the worst thing to try and track down. You
have my sympathy.
Hopefully one of these suggestions, or one of the links, will help.
