I wrote a program to play MPEG movies on the Mac in MetaCard using QuickTime. What I've noticed is that the movie will play better if you don't use the controller. Also, make sure you try to stop the movie before you switch to another tool (like the button tool, etc.). When I was testing the software, it played great, but when I was developing everything, it was pretty bad. I guess the best way to go is to use small MPEG movies while developing, and use the large ones for testing. I don't know if this will help, but that's what worked for me. Oh, AVI support in QuickTime is pretty flaky. Some work, and some don't. To get DIVX AVI's to work I had to download 2 things. 1 component for QuickTime to allow it to play. And a utility to convert the DIVX MP3 track to something that Quicktime can handle.
