I'm taking bets that Flash playback is re-enabled by default in QT
7.1.4? Anyone in?
:-)
Seriously, though, I'm hoping that this problem (a rather major hole
in one of Apple's flagship products, Keynote) might get some action
on getting QuickTime to support the latest Flash plugin. Hey, a
guy can dream, right?

There are probably a couple of ways you could handle the whole
process. If Flash is disabled when your application starts up, you
should be displaying a dialog to tell the user what's happening and
that the application will need to be re-launched before Flash can
be used.
As far as actually enabling Flash, you could:
1. Enable it automatically within your application and tell the
user after the fact when you display a "Flash disabled" dialog; or
2. When the user clicks OK in the "Flash disabled" dialog, you
could open the QuickTime preference pane so that they can enable
Flash on their own.
In both cases there could also be a Cancel button that leaves
things as-is, with the user understanding that they can't run your
application until Flash is enabled. Then the OK button would
perform one of the actions above. And, naturally, your application
would quit when the dialog is dismissed by clicking a button.
The benefit of going with this approach is that the user is always
in control instead of your application demanding that Flash be
enabled. That might not be the user's choice.

I tried that and it work. Thanks for the code!
The only thing is that I tried to do this:
gQTError = EnterMovies ();
// check for the flash compatibility problem in 7.1.3
if (QT_GetQTVersion() >= 0x07138000)
{
if (IsFlashEnabled () == false)
{
EnableFlash ();
ExitMovies ();
gQTError = EnterMovies ();
}
}
But this does not work. As you write it's an obligation to
relaunch the
application to get the flash working inside QuickTime.
