Hi all, i was just wondering if it was possible to create new
protocols to QC like done with image filter, graphic animation etc
(see editor > edit protocol conformance within qc). The idea being to
use have the composition repository patch filter out and only display
composition fitting a new protocols set, as it all ready does with
image filter, graphic transitions etc. I have noticed today that a new
protocol has been added, Photo Visualizer, is this Apples doing? i am
running 10.5.2 + the new iphoto

This probably isn't a publicly accessible feature. The patch itself (Composition Repository) has a hard-coded set of protocols in the QuartzComposer framework, and it's only possible to substitute strings at that level (even adding more strings doesn't work, due to the way indexPorts work internally) -- changing the names probably won't alter the behaviour though, just the UI. The binary behind it is built into the QC Framework, so you'd have to update that as well (at least, as far as I can tell).

You might be able to pull it off with a custom plugin that registers additional protocols (I'm guessing this is what iPhoto does?), but it'd be tricky since it's not public api stuff.
