Some visuals work for me, some don't.  Mac OS 8.5.1, QT 5.0.2, MC 
2.4.1 starter (just ordered the full).

And no, no chance of upgrading past 8.5.1 at this moment (as someone 
suggested to me on another list).  I try to be backward compatible as 
well as forward compatible, so I expect my creations to work for 
people with older systems and computers as well.  Not just the latest 
and greatest.  Besides, I'm happy with 8.5.1 (if it ain't broke, I 
don't like messing with it :-)

The visuals worked initially, and stopped.  I do not remember if they 
stopped working when I switched from Rev to MC, or when I went from 
MC 2.4 to 2.4.1, or if it happened later.  I'm pretty sure they 
worked after the last switch.

I don't remember the handler offhand, but the docs had a call you 
could make to see what visuals Quicktime supported, and I typed that 
in, and there were only three.  And none of those were the ones I was 
using.  Although some of the visuals that ARE working aren't on that 
list.  So I'm baffled.

Does anyone know which piece of Quicktime holds the visual commands? 
So I can verify that I have that piece installed?  There are about 15 
Quicktime pieces in my Extensions folder.
