Why bother using an unsupported private framework when existing sample code is widely available, and doesn't limit your userbase?

Take a look at the docs for NSWorkspace.

Has anyone had any success compiling the source code? I get errors during compile with Xcode and end up with a broken app.

Success! Here's what you need to do: 1. Create a new account named "johnd". Log into this new account. 2. Download the FFMpeg source code from http://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/cvs/. I…

If I use ffmpegx to scale an HD file down to 720x1080, the final file opens as 720x540 in QuickTime but as some much larger one (2x zoom?) in both VLC and Accellent. I suspect that…
