Even with Quicktime 7.0, Revolution/Metacard crash unexpectly and quite frequently with graphics intensive applications.  After struggling for work around with Quicktime in the past two years, I finally abandoned the use of Quicktime in my children's games on the Window side.  Now the crashing has stopped and I am happy, but with less than pleasing transition effects on the Windows side.  

1.  Converted all MIDI files to mono/22,000 .aif files

2.  Done a lot of

If the platform is "macos" then

   unlock with visual the coolqteffect of this card 

else

   unlock with visual boringdissolveonREV

end if

 

If you experience multiple unexpected crashes of your REV/Metacard appz, and you use quite a bit of multimedia.  Uninstal QT or use the "dontuseQT" property to shut of QT from REV.
