Thread: Ambulant interpretation vs. Quicktime SMIL




Ambulant interpretation vs. Quicktime SMIL

Hi folks,

The SMIL 1.0 file below works perfectly with AMbulant.
However, when opening 
the same SMIL file with Quicktime, I'm getting some kind of
blank transition 
screens in the main region when the player switch from one
.mov to another 
(and same problem in the "unregistered" region).
I'm suprised because I 
believe I have used the background-color attribute properly.
I could 
reproduce the problem with different .mov files.

Could it be a difference between how Ambulant and Quicktime
interpret the 
par/seq sequence below and the appropriate fill/freeze
attribute?
