- I have found that boosting the application memory of FM Pro really

- Not according to the FM Pro 2.0 manual. It says "The movie in a
- picture/sound field is actually a reference to a Quicktime movie file."

- real slowness in searching. It's not like you can actually search within
- the picture/sound field.
