the big tip off on windows to see if mc has loaded and is using qt to play a media file is that the controller bar will be show (if that prop is true). even if you turn off qt in mc or rev, if you fiddle a while with players it will sometime get loaded and things start working. you get very happy and think you have the solution, but alas, its just that qt got reloaded and rev or mc is using it... only way to safely check this out is to work on a machine you have stripped qt from (luckly it does remove and reinstall pretty nicely on xp at least).
best of luck. i wish there was a way to do at least sounds easily using the player on windows, some apps i do dont use video, but need some sound files played and i cant embed them and i requiring windows users to load qt is not possible with some clients (their it controls all installations and doesnt like anything like apple software on a windows machine -- yes they think apples are nothing but hand held calculators) and others just dont want to trouble with it...
cheers,
jeff

Not a good assumption. You must specifically query the qtVersion to make
sure QT is loaded.
Also, Rev is indeed capable of playing media on Windows without QT being
present, however, as you noticed, the capabilities of the player object will
be much more limited compared to a player using QT.
