Q Is there a simple way to detach a QuickTime movie from its original
file? I'm trying to place a copy of a QuickTime movie in my application's
resource fork, which is approximately 40KB.
A There is an article about QuickTime cross-platform compatibility
and multiple movie files in develop #17. John Wang's column in that issue should
answer your question. You can use the technique presented in the column to extract a movie
and put it into the resource fork of a different movie. The Developer CDs also include a code
sample (and documentation for it) called Multiple Movie: The Multiple- Movie Capabilities of QuickTime. You might want to check these out.
