In general, you need to create *all* QTMovie objects on the main
thread. You should then be able to migrate them to a background
thread (using the APIs DetachMovieFromCurrentThread and
AttachMovieToCurrentThread) and operate on them there. There is a
Tech Note on QuickTime thread safety you should take a look at.
However, we have recently uncovered some issues when working with
QTMovie objects on a background thread, even when doing things the
"right way". We are hoping to provide a more thread-safe QTKit soon.
