- README - WatchMe
-
- WatchMe is a custom application intended to support the WatchMe.mov movie on the
- QuickTime 3 SDK (Software Development Kit). Its sole reason for existing is to
- convert relative URLs (contained in wired sprite actions) to absolute URLs (for
- consumption by the movie controller). Currently the movie controller cannot handle
- relative URLs.
-
- WatchMe is just like most other QuickTime movie players, except that it intercepts
- movie controller actions of type mcActionLinkToURL. (In the WatchMe.mov movie, these
- actions are generated by wired sprite actions). It inspects the URL passed with the action
- and, if it's a relative URL, converts it into an absolute URL before passing it on to the
- movie controller.
-
- Most of the code unique to WatchMe is contained in the file WatchMe.c.

- Enjoy,
- QuickTime Team
