Thank you Kai,

I'm aware of the difference NAME / KIND and that KIND is r/o as well.
It is weird that using the app QTPlayer I can change the kind but not using applescript.
The solution suggested sets the NAME in ANNOTATION, while what I need is specifically change the kind in order to make a bunch of movies compatible with an master movie that already exists and makes decisions based on the KIND of each track.

How on earth can you change the KIND of a track in QT Player manually? A Video track is always a Video track, and I can't see how you could change that to ANY other track Kind, like Audio - and if you could, it would involve more than just changing a flag like this. I think there's a misunderstanding here somewhere... Kind is a read only property for a good reason - you can't change it! You must be changing something else - what is it? Maybe a screen shot would help?


You sure you're not trying to change the Language or another property? I can't imagine any circumstance a track would be of kind/type "Portuguese" - kind represents the abstract media type, like Audio, Text, Image, Video, etc...
