MakeItMooV is a tool for developers who work with QuickTime‚Ñ¢ on both Macintosh and Windows‚Ñ¢ platforms. Use it to give .MOV files imported from a PC the correct movie icon.
MakeItMooV doesn't change any data in the imported movie file; it just changes the file’s type to 'MooV' and the creator to 'TVOD', which marks it as a Movie Player™ document. This means that:
• the file’s icon becomes the standard QuickTime movie icon (i.e. a MoviePlayer document).
• the file can be opened by all Macintosh QuickTime applications.
• opening the file from the Finder will start MoviePlayer, which will open the file.
To use MakeItMooV, put it (or an alias of it) on the desktop. Drag individual or multiple files into it to change them. Don’t drag in folders; it won’t change the files inside them.
MakeItMooV will only try to change imported movie files. To force MakeItMooV to change every kind of file (including locked files), hold down the option key when dragging in files.
