Movie Exporting Flags

The flags parameter for the ConvertMovieToFile function specifies a set of movie conversion flags. QuickTime 2.0 provided these additional flag:

enum {
    showUserSettingsDialog  = 2,
    movieToFileOnlyExport   = 4,
    movieFileSpecValid      = 8
};

Flag descriptions

showUserSettingsDialog
If this flag is set, the Save As dialog box will be displayed to allow the user to choose the type of file to export to, optional export settings, and the file name to export to.

movieToFileOnlyExport
If this flag is set and the showUserSettingsDialog flag is set, the Save As dialog box restricts the user to those file formats that are supported by movie data export components. If this flag is not set, the user will also be able to save the movie either as a self-contained movie or as a reference movie.

movieFileSpecValid
If this flag is set and the showUserSettingsDialog flag is set, the name field of the outputFile parameter is used as the default name of the exported file in the Save As dialog box.
