Using appscript <http://freespace.virgin.net/hamish.sanderson/appscript.html> to control the front movie in QuickTime Player: #!/usr/bin/env pythonw from appscript import * starttime = 30 # seconds m = app('QuickTime Player').movies[1] timescale = m.time_scale.get() m.current_time.set(starttime * timescale) m.play() If you need to open the movie from file first: #!/usr/bin/env pythonw from appscript import * from macfile import File moviepath = '/Users/has/Movies/some.mov' starttime = 30 # seconds m = app('QuickTime Player').open(File(moviepath)) timescale = m.time_scale.get() m.current_time.set(starttime * timescale) m.play() Calculates the start time based on seconds rather than timecodes, but modifying it to use the latter shouldn't be hard.
