Hi Stephen,
Check this link for masking video, works fine, but you need to make sure
everything is in the perfect order.
- videolink adjacent to the mask in the cast
- only 1 bit mask
- set the mask to the videosprite on PrepareMovie
- let the first frame of the videosprite free
- video in DTS

You're looking at Director's ability to keep three QuickTimes playing
at the same time, even with one of them being blended against the
other two.
The blending does not work when you're in DTS mode, and masking only works
when you're in DTS mode.

QT requires an install of QuickTime in Windows.
I might dispute this part. Look at this technology breakdown:

If you're put off by only having about 60% of people able
Agreed.
I have settled on using QuickTime exclusively for even Windows-only
projects. It is reliable across many different Windows configurations
...much better than Windows Media. In the past, I've downloaded the

I think it's always the case that you're only really licensed to
include the most recent installer, but I can't believe that part of
the license requires that you retrieve existing stock when there's a
new installer released. I also don't think that Apple ask to see your
order books, and that

If I understand that part right, you only have to do something about
it IF Apple write to you, and even then you can take six months to
get around to it. It also talks about ceasing distribution, not
retrieving of already distributed stock. Do you really manufacture an
excess of six month's
I think any arguments about using QuickTime were also arguments away
from Flash, and towards Director. As for odd shaped videos, Director
can do those too:

Once you see the videos playing, drag the three of them around.
You're looking at
A project cropped up that is mainly video... and I'm wondering if I
should use Director or Flash. The video area needs to be non-square.
I'm creating the video too, so I have control over that.
Only Windows playback.
Only hard drive playback (no CD, or internet).
Playback machines will be new,
Even though the question is Flash vs. Director as a delivery vehicle, I'll
write about video formats. This still seems to be relevant. Like Stephen,
I'm starting a new project that will have lots of video segments, about
twenty minutes in each segment--so I spent the last few days encoding and
Go for Director, this support Quicktime, but also AVI, Mpeg (requires third
party extras), WMV (Win only) and even Real Video.
