[Hidden-tech] Will pay for a Mac problem solved

[B. Kimo Lee]

Hi George
I played your movie on a new 24" iMac and it seems to display fine.  
Video plays and the little colored rectangles trigger text in the  
yellow screen. I attached a screenshot for your review. Do you think  
the version of QT on the user's computer needs upgrading?
Btw, looks like eZedia is still in business, but is a division of a  
company called Safari Video Networks.
Hope this helps...
Best,
Kimo
