Re: QTVRAS .mov



It's been a while since I've looked at the detail of how QTVRAS does 
this, but I'm pretty sure that the .mov isn't flat (single-fork), while 
the .obj is. This means that Windows doesn't have access to the important 
stuff that's being put in the resource fork of the .mov file on the Mac.

Try opening the .mov in QTPlayer/Mac, saving a new file self-contained, 
and then opening *that* .mov in Windows. I think you'll have much more 
success.
