Yep, that's what I ended up doing-- creating a QT ref file by scratch. But
it's so much easier using SMIL than managing all the tracks manually. My app
has the traditional timeline with 2 audio tracks for editing. So, the
compilation can get complicated, though I was able to do it with Trevor's
external. Much easier with SMIL, but then you can't export to a single
standalone video file, which you can do with a QT ref file.
