New Debug Tool Added to Plugin

QuickTime 5 adds a new tool to the Plugin that will help debug wired movies. The tool, which is simple and easy to use, is intended for QuickTime developers who are working specifically with wired movies. It works in this manner:

When the plug-in finds a media key named QTPIShowDebugMessages with the value "alert," it puts up a dialog whenever it gets a sprite debug message. If the value is "debugger," it drops into the low-level debuggeer (MacsBug or whatever is installed on your machine).
