*If* I remember, correctly, the default value of the global dontuseQT is false on Windows (and true on OSX>=10.8).
However, note that QT is not officially supported on Windows 8.1 and 10. It is quite possible that it will "just work", but not guaranteed. From Apple's website (https://support.apple.com/kb/DL837?locale=en_US): ***Please note: QuickTime 7 is for use with Windows Vista or Windows 7. If installed on other versions of Windows, it may not offer full functionality and is unsupported. *** If you convert all the video files to .AVI then they should display as expected (of course make sure that dontUseQT is set to true), but you will not be able to use the controller for video playback, since this feature is specific to QuickTime. I suggest converting one video to .AVI and see if it works, and if not, please file a bug report. Best regards, Panos -- On Thu, Mar 31, 2016 at 8:43 PM, J.
