Hi,
thank you. I tried to do what you said (adding the subview, then setMovie)
and I got the same result, but I have a news. I finally understood that the
movie disappears when I call [superview setNeedsDisplay:YES];
the problem is that since I have other objects on the superview (that the
user can move and resize), I need to call [superview setNeedsDisplay:YES]
just time to time. And whenever I do, the movie disappears. So I have to
resize the window in order to get it reappears. I suppose that the class
NSMovieView has some bugs. I saw other developers here having any sort of
problems with it. I hope Apple fixed these bugs in "Tiger".


Best Regards
