Notes & Comments

QTStreamingApplet.html is for use with this code - it will expect to find the AppletTag.js when run in a browser.

Enter a url eg. http:///... to play a movie (or read in an image file) in the text box at the bottom of the applet

See the Simple Applet for comments about the code.

General Comments

- QTSession.open and close:

A QTSession.open will perform a gestalt check to ensure that QuickTime is present and is initialized. This is a required call before any QuickTime Java classes can be used - it is called first in the init() method

It is necessary for programs to call QTSession.close if they have previously called QTSession.open in order to shut down QuickTime properly - it is called in the destroy() method
