QT Player only?

[Barry Levine]

Scott,

According to the docs, once you display a QT Player object, QT loads. 
Here the quote:

The following actions cause QuickTime to be loaded into memory:
	• Displaying a player object
	• Playing an audio clip or video clip
	• Recording sound using the record sound command
	• Using the recordFormats function or the answer record command
	• Using a visual effect with visual effect, show, hide, or unlock 
screen
	• Using the answer effect command or QTEffects function
	• Using the QTVersion function

I guess I'm not grokking the difference between a player object and a 
videoClip or how to even control a "vc".
