How can I reset QTMovieView contents?

Hello.

In my Cocoa application, I have a window with a QTMovieView control. When I want to reset the state of the control to "nothing" (just empty black rectangle), I say "setMovie: nil" to it. My question: is this legal? And if it isn't, what's the correct way to reset its state?

The fact that makes me think that probably it isn't is that my application sometimes crashes after I do so. It happens after a while somewhere deep inside QuickTime - looks like corrupted memory problem. Well, I'm not 100% sure that the problem is in this "setMovie: nil", but if I comment it out, the crash seems to vanish.

I can send the entire test project (about only 20 lines of source code actually) to anyone who feels interested. In general, this is a mixture of QTKit and QuickTime SDK employing some deprecated APIs (like FSSpec). Well, it is pretty easy to get rid of them in this small test application, but it was created just to demonstrate (and to isolate) the problem I encounter in my real big application, and before modifying megabytes of source code, I want to be sure concerning what's the reason.

Thanks in advance for any hint!

Best regards,
Sergey Shapovalov.
