hi,
looking for a solution for a problem that i had, i stumbled across an
old thread on this list;

Sorry for the movie here is the debug window message :

i had exactly the same problem with playing QTmovies in a QCpatch,
although the graphics-card supports quartz-extreme.
i found that i my case the problem was caused by a second videocard
that doesn't support Quartz-extreme, eventhough QC reports that it's
rendering on the first card.
disabling the second card by detaching the monitor solved the problem
for me.
is this a bug in QuartzComposer?
if it is a bug i wonder if there's a solution or workaround, so that
i can still use that additional card for attaching an extra monitor
(e.g. for code-editting).
if it's not a bug and this should usually just work, i'd like to know
what i am doing wrong, because somehow i do remember that i've been
running patches with QTmovies in the past on the same configuration.
i guess that if this is normal behaviour, i should just buy a new mac...
thanks
.
