ARGH.  I'm already "signed up"... what's with this "confirmation"?

Yes, I'm seeing odd playback issues with the latest VP3 codec (downloaded from
VP3.com) installed into Windows Millenium (kept up to date with various M$
stuff though I have not "upgraded" to DirectX 9.0a) running QuickTime 6.1 Pro.

I've installed both the AVI and QuickTime codecs, by the way (just today).

Issue: When I playback VP3 content via QuickTime (created on a Macintosh), I
can only playback the video at 1:1 (320x240).  Attempting any other size
results in "no video" (the QT Player content area goes white), though the sound
continues to playback.  Disabling ALL of the "DirectDraw" options in QT doesn't
alter this behaviour.

I don't have any AVI VP3 content to test as a contrast... all I can (easily)
find is Quicktime-VP3 content, which is understandable... it's playable by more
people.
