Summary: Quicktime 7.4.5, window decoration problems Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc1 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: ronfischler@gmail.com
Quicktime 7.4.5 installs and runs using wine 1.0-rc1, assuming gdiplus.dll is present and gdi safe mode has been activated. When switching to another virtual desktop however, Quicktime dies and the running display window is removed. I have to restart Quicktime to continue viewing my QTVR files. If the Quicktime player is minimized first before switching to another virtual desktop, then this problem does not occur. Two more problems, possibly related: when running as a stand-alone window, the usual "minimize, maximize, and close" buttons are not drawn at the top of the window. The normal Quicktime controls are not drawn at the bottom of the window either, but since all the keyboard shortcuts work - that is not such a problem. Disallowing the window manager to decorate or control Quicktime windows made no difference. Emulating a virtual desktop made no difference.
I am running Ubuntu 8.04 with Compiz effects activated.
The good news is that when used as a plugin to firefox, also running under wine, it works quite well.
