It may be a formatting issue caused by email; when I open the script directly from Apple's example it runs, and when I Select All, Copy, and Paste into a new script in AppleScript editor it runs, but when I paste into a Rev field and try to run from there it fails.

If you're inclined to try it (it's a useful set of scripts to have anyway if you need to script the QT Player) it's at:
<http://www.apple.com/applescript/quicktime/>


Once the archive is decompressed the example I used is in:

 QuickTime Player Scripts/Chapters/Chapter Summary.scpt
