Hi Devin,
Forgive me if this is has already been discussed; I don't remember reading about it.
Recipe:
1. Create a player object.
2. Set the fileName prop to a URL with a QT compatible audio format. In this case I used "http://www.auburn.edu/forlang/russian/audio/norvegiya.wav";.
3. Play the sound.
The sound file appears not to download fully. The download indicator in the controller bar does not fill completely, and the sound plays to the point indicated as having downloaded, then stops. This happens consistently, even if I reload. Setting the alwaysBuffer prop to true or false makes no difference.
Works here for me...
RR 2.2, X 10.3.4, QT 6.5.1, 1 GHZ G4
If I use
play URl "http://www.auburn.edu/forlang/russian/audio/norvegiya.wav";
it works perfectly, but of course if I do this I'm limited to using only uncompressed audio.
This one was new to me, cool :-)
Has anyone else encountered this apparent problem with player objects?
No sorry, works here...
Possible workarounds:
1. Download that file -> ... load url "http://www.auburn.edu/forlang/russian/audio/norvegiya.wav"; ...
to a temp file first and set the filename to that file after the load has completed...
2. Use Trevor's wonderful QT external:

It lets you even monitor the progress of the QT download, which is not possible in RR...
