Error with Quicktimeeffects.qtx - problem better identified

[Robert Earp]

Thanks Craig, you've most probably identified my next problem as I  
have just managed to narrow the problem to a screen transition rather  
than playing an audio file.  There are a number of things going on  
when the error occurs, and it's now looking like it happens when I do  
the following;

lock screen
unlock screen with visual effect dissolve

Another observation is that if I run the stand-alone .exe in the  
Windows 98/Me Compatibility mode, on the PC  where we get the problem,  
the error does not occur but I then don't get any audio playing.  Of  
course, the latter may be the issue you have spoken about, and  
besides, I really don't wish to run in this mode anyway!!

Why can't the world move to OS X..............

best, Bob...
