Hi from Paris,

I used Quicktime Pro on my Mac to slice up a .avi file into several .mov files (apparently the only option). In my Rev stack, my player script worked a treat, and played the .mov files (and also the original .avi files). Then I ran my .rev stack on the PC (StackRunner), and the files wouldn't play. Mark Schonewille (off-forum) suggested that I was missing a codec, which is quite a logical suggestion, but for a .mov file created by Quicktime (although Mac) itself, I was curious. So I first tried opening the .mov file on my PC, by launching Quicktime (I don't have the Pro version on my PC), isolating the problem from my Rev script. Surprise, although it displays the window, and plays the audio track, the video track is not displayed. So it is not a Rev problem, but a QT problem. I have the latest iTunes/Quicktime on my XP PC, so why can't I read .mov files created by QT itself ? I realize that this is not a Rev problem, but perhaps other users have come across this cross-platform QT problem which prevents Rev "Play Video" scripts from running correctly.
