That won't work. QuickTime Player doesn't support presenting a movie
out to a FireWire device. You have some options:
1) use a PowerBook, iBook, or buy a graphics card with an s-video
output for your PowerMac, and plug straight into the tv. QuickTime
will happily play out onto a TV that is connected to the machine
through an analog output.
2) Download the samplecode to SimpleVideoOut at
ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Sample_Code/QuickTime/Capturing/
SimpleVideoOut.sit
This little app _will_ play QuickTime content out to a firewire device,
with the caveat that the movie must be in dv format, or you won't see
any output.

List,
Hopefully, someone may have an idea here for me. I built an
applescript
application for our athletics department that involves video. One
tweak I'd
like to make is this, display a QuickTime movie on an external TV
monitor.
The TV monitor is currently connected to a Sony DV cam, which is being
used
to both import and export video edited on the Mac to an S-VHS VCR.
So, with
the Camera currently connected to the Mac via FireWire, is there
anyway I
can get a QuickTime movie display through the FireWire connection.
Obviously something like this is possible as this works with Final Cut
Pro
or iMovie (the video will display as it's being played in those app)
but I'd
like to the same thing but using QT Player instead.
Any free (or cheap) ideas? I know this may sound off the wall, but in
the
context of what we are doing, it would be a nice perk. BTW, video
mirroring
wouldn't work.
Thanks!
