[ANN] EnhancedQT 1.0 Beta

[Trevor DeVore]

Hi,

I've posted EnhancedQT 1.0 beta 1 for anyone who feels adventurous and 
wants to begin testing.  I haven't included any new sample stacks but 
there is documentation (which still needs a lot of work) in the 
download which lays out all of the handlers.

Some additions to 1.0:

* Setting and getting QTLists is much more reliable.  It now works on 
movies and tracks and setting actually works.  In previous version you 
could get a QTList but not set it.
* You can get/set flash variables, simulate mouse clicks on flash 
buttons, and navigate within frames.(see QTFlash.html in docs).
* You can rotate player objects (thanks to Brian Yennie).
* You can create seamless loops from an audio file (QT skips when 
repeating normally) without increasing required memory (see 
QTAudio.html in docs)
* Added functions for getting information about movie files 
(qtCanQuickTimeOpenFile, qtGetMovieFileType, qtGetMovieFileDuration, 
qtGetMovieFileDimensions).

Some changes to 1.0 from previous version:

* All errors return "qterr,ERROR Message" so you can check item 1 of 
the result() or returned value to see if there was an error.
* FSCommands from SWF files now send QTFSCommand messages rather than 
FSCommand.
* qtSave is now qtSaveAs and has modified parameters.  qtSave will be 
implemented once Rev exposes the necessary movie properties.
* Editing functions no longer return 1/0.  Instead empty/error.
* If something isn't working that used to check the parameters in the 
docs.  They may have changed.
