I think you may have missed my point -- Enabling Flash in QT Preferences is the secret work-around that many customers will not understand or want to / be able to deal with. From their point of view, the product will just mysteriously stop working when they upgrade to 7.1.3.

I'm not saying it's a show-stopper, but for those of us who have a large existing customer base, this change is a big pain in the behind.

Michael,

Your problem is probably due to using an old version of REALbasic. I just installed QuickTime 7.1.3 on Mac OS X, enabled Flash in the QT Preferences, and .SWF Flash files seem to play fine in my multimedia application using
REALbasic's MoviePlayer control.  My app was compiled with RB2006.

Hope that helps...

I am following this discussion, but my app does not have any
problem at all. It works now, as it worked before. I use lots of
Flash and find everything working as expected. I use no plugins,
only pure Rb. I only noticed that  QuickTime 7.1.3 is a bit slower
than I was used to.

Interesting.  I wonder if it's a RB version issue, or a content
issue.  For me, using RB 4.5.3, FolderItem.OpenAsMovie, now fails
under 7.1.3 with Flash files.

Are you sure you are using actual Flash tracks within QuickTime?
Sometimes folks accidentally convert a Flash track into a QuickTime
video track w/o knowing it.   Try opening your file in QuickTime
player, doing a get-Info and see if the track is Flash or not?
