Thanks guys, thats awesome. I appreciate all the tips on windowless
QC rendering. I had it working perfectly... until it just stopped
working! My QC patch is loading an xml file in an assets folder
(assets/data.xml) and loading in jpgs (again from the assets folder),
I'm guessing it has something to do with that. When I run the
composition from QC it works fine, when I run the .app all I see is
the background (the assets folder is next to the .app file so relative
path should work). Is this a security issue? Are there any
complications in loading xml files from compositions embedded in an
.app? I noticed if I export my composition to a .mov from QC it also
doesn't work (can only see background).
