I only thought it was special because the call that accepted a flag did it,
while the call that did not accept a flag did not. So I thought perhaps there
was a difference between the 2 that you could change, it may just be quicktime
messing with our heads I dont know ;)

I tested with the built in RB openURLMovie and the movie returned from that
method has the correct size but wont do anything unless I assign it to a movie
player for display. I really dont need a movie player in this instance and hope
I wont have to revert to sticking one on a hidden window or something like
that. If I open the movie with the MBS methods, then i can get it to play
without assigning it to a movie player, but it's always the same default tiny
size. If I manually change the size via the movieHeightMBS methods then it does
change the size of the entire movie, but the content stays as a postage stamp
in one corner ;)
