I have a sketch which loads a QT movie and it all works fine. I save that
sketch with a different name and the movie won't load. The QT file is in
the data folder. I have tried moving the file to the same folder as the
.pde sketch but same problem. In the print window the error is:

quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:7.5.5g],-2048=noMovieFound,QT.vers:7558000

I am running Leopard 10.5.6 on a MBP. Processing is 1.0

Any ideas? Any tests you can suggest?

cheers

I can't debug this without being able to run the two versions of the sketch.

However, if the name of the folder where you've saved things contains
non-ascii characters (or even spaces or punctuation, in some cases), you
might be affected by a QuickTime bug that doesn't handle some paths correctly.

closing this bug, because we'll be replacing the current video library with
another sometime later this summer. as such, i won't be doing any more bug
fixes on the current video library.
