Quicktime movie

[Klaus Major]

Hi Tamee,

> Hi all.

> movie in Rev. How do I create the Quicktime file in the first place,

You could use the revVideoGrabber to record QT movies from a camera...

Thats the only way to create QT files in RR...

> and then how do I get Rev to play it?

Once you have a QT movie, you just need to create a new player-object  
in RR
(the icon on the bottomright in the tools palette), set its filename in  
the inspector
and there you go. Check "showController" and you will need no extra  
button to
start/stop the movie :-)

> Is there a good resource for getting 'how-to' information like this?
