Thanks for the attachment, Adrian. Through this I discovered there is no pasp atom on my file. Still, when I bring it into Nuke I see a the file normally, but in Quicktime player it is squashed. Very strange.
Thanks for the links, Wouter. The ATomic Dumpster is a PowerPC application, so it doesn't work anymore. But if I get my hands on a Windows box, I'll give the other thing a try.
