Is it possible to have a transparent text field on top of a quicktime movie, the way we can put a text field layer over an image? if not -- is there any way in revolution to fake closed captioning?

Some others have mentioned the alwaysBuffer property. You can also use LiveStage and accomplish what you want. If you have access to Livestage Pro you can create the captioning in text tracks (LSP has a Media Synchronizer that might help) and then create links that within the text that call the DebugStr function. Revolution can trap DebugStr (QTDebugStr player message) messages from a QT movie and respond accordingly. I use this with QTVR and it works great.
Keeping the captioning with the movie can be beneficial if you end up deploying the movie on the web as well.
