QTMTB 21 - hintsHighQuality Flag (1-May-95)

hintsHighQuality is a flag you may pass to the SetMoviePlayHints and SetMediaPlayHints routines. It specifies that the given movie or media should render at the highest quality. Rendering at highest quality may take considerably more time and memory. Therefore, this mode is typically not appropriate for real-time playback, but is very useful for re-compressing as it can generate higher quality images.

hintsHighQuality = 1<<81<<8<

The high-quality mode can be used with other media handlers as well. For example, the Video Media Handler turns off fast dithering and allows high-quality dithering.
