It has been more than 5 years (thank God) since I've had to deal with the QuickTime C API, so my question may be ignorant...
You collect the error return from QTNewDataReferenceFromURLCFString(), but you don't check the error, or any of the return values. What happens when you do?
In any event, this is a mailing list for discussion of development with the Cocoa application frameworks. The Quicktime-API list deals with the C API for QuickTime. All anyone here can do is read the documentation (which is appallingly bad, at least as supplied with Xcode 3.2) for you.
