This is possible with QuickTime 7 as there is a new  
kQTAudioPropertyID_RateChangesPreservePitch property that you can set  
for a movie when you open it.  In order to use this feature  
Revolution needs to update the way it opens QuickTime movies though.

If we could set the movieControllerID property of a player object  
(rather than just read it) then I could add the ability to open a  
movie with that property set to the EnhancedQT external.  I just  
created an enhancement request for this: <http://support.runrev.com/
