Re: QT DV Capture Bug (Ryan Henderson)

Ryan

The bug may be in the 10.2.2 file permissions handling not in QT. I
have seen the following problems since moving to 10.2:

1. folders burned onto CDs under 10.0.4 when copied onto a hard drive
under 10.2 are locked and there is no way I can unlock them or delete
them (not even with rm in the terminal) - shows up as a lock on icon
in Preview in Get Info
2. copied files (QTMovies and FCP projects) from one machine to another
over network, then installed FCP3 on the 2nd machine and it would not
open the project files - both project files and Movie file had blank
icons. Copied again after installing FCP and files are OK. The
problem appears to be that if the application isn't on the machine when
the file is copied to it the file is set as an unknown type and can not
be opened by the application when it is subsequently installed.
