is quicktime installed on both machines? which version?
(QuickTime is the preferred video decoder library on w32; if it is not 
available it falls back to DirectShow; the libraries might behave 
slightly different (though Gem tries hard to make them appear the same)

as you are experiencing changes between versions it is always useful if 
you can include information about the actual versions you are using (in 
both cases); compile date _does_ matter!

anyhow, i thought i had fixed the audio-playback via the quicktime 
decoder (no Pd involved) in recent builds (the CVS-commit dates to 
2008/05/09)
