Quicktime for Java movie export and appserver user

We are currently experiencing a problem we can't find out how to solve...
We are using QuickTime for Java behing WebObjects.

WebObjects is usually launched as "appserver" user. This user has no home (ie /var/empty is his home).
I know that to be able to make the QTSession.open() call, I have to use -Djava.awt.headless=true. This one works.

But the goal of my code is to export a movie with a set of given parameters. And as soon as I try to export the movie, the application blocks.
Nothing happens but no exception is raised.
I have tried to export with all the versions of Movie.convertToFile, also MovieExporter.toFile... nothing works.

But if I launch the application with  a "normal" user by changing the /System/Library/StartupItems/WebObjects/WebObjects file (I am under 10.3) it works.

What is missing to that "appserver" user to be able to export movies ???
If someone could help, I would really appreciate.

Regards
