[PD] Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc4-macosx104-powerpc : video codecs

[Derek Holzer]

HI Chris, IOhannes,

I've tried the binaries gem-0.90.0-OSX-G4-bin and gem-CVS20070605-OSX-G5 
as well as various Extended installers.

Mac specs are 10.4.10, 1.67 GHz PPC G4 2 GB DDR SRAM

No software updates besides the newest PD Extended were installed 
between yesterday, when [pix_film] worked, and today, when [pix_film] 
doesn't.

Built-in Quicktime plays the clips fine. I've also tried moving and 
renaming the clips with no positive results. Same clips have been copied 
to another machine where [pix_film] plays them there.

I'm completely stumped. How else can I test if Quicktime is working 
right on my machine? Should I reinstall that as well? Am I right in 
understanding that PD simply calles the Quicktime which is loaded on the 
system already?
