New QuickTime Media Links XML Importer

QuickTime 5 introduces support for a new XML importer -- QuickTime Media Links. This is a small XML file that has similar attributes to the embed tag in HTML used for the plugin, but targets QuickTime Player instead of the plugin. This section discusses the supported attributes and values, and how to create the file.

To test the new QuickTime Media Links XML importer, you create a text file with the following two lines at the top of the file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?quicktime type="application/x-quicktime-media-link"?>

Next, you add the embed tag itself:

<embed src="http://somewhere.com/Movies/test.mov" />
