Use this in a timer when the audio is playing to keep quicktime from skipping. Set Timer Mode to 2 and Period to 1.

Declare Sub MoviesTask Lib "/System/Library/Frameworks/ QuickTime.framework/Quicktime" (movie as Integer, maxMsec as Integer)
MoviesTask 0, 10

I am testing an app on my costumers's computer, an iMac G5, 1 GB RAM, and I'm experiencing frequents drops on quicktime audio playing.

the app is essencially a search engine on a catalogue and a player for listening on a separate window, and most of the times the drops occur when the application is doing absolutely nothing on the backgroud. They simply occur randomly, or for example when switching to another application.

I've found some posts about quicktime declares amd movietasking, but the way the drops occurs ( no operations on the backgroud ) makes me think that it could not be the solution. I have removed some tasks, such a a custom canvas display of the waveform with an advancing pointer, to be sure of this.

is it possible that I'm facing such poor quicktime performance on a G5?

any idea about the problem?
