Enhanced QT External

[Klaus Major]

Hi Richard,

> Trevor,

although i am not Trevor, i will answer your questions :-)

> Is qtFlipMovie currently implemented?

Yes.

> If so, can you please explain how it works?

See below...

> ... does it flip the entire movie?

Sure, not only portions of it ;-)

>  .... where is the new movie stored?

It will be flipped on the fly by Quicktime***, not extra movie will be 
stored!
***Quicktime can do these kind of tricks :-)

>  ... anything else to know about this command?

You mean any hidden secrets? Don't think so, but that will have to be
answered by Trevor himself ;-)

 From the documentation, which comes along witht the actual external for 
free :-)
