Media Keys & QuickTime X

Use QuickTime Player 7.6.3 instead.
Since Snow Leopard has no System Preference pane I don't know how you would enter the media key info.

Insert the Snow Leopard DVD and run the Optional Install package.
But I don't think it will make any difference since the "Media Key" info for the Sorenson codec may not be available because there is no System Preference pane to enter the values.

Jamie T -- please try the following. I believe your syntax may be wrong. See if this works:

qtdefaults write MediaKeys category key

Replace the word category with the correct case sensitive category and the work key with the correct case sensitive key. After doing this, type the following from the command line to see if the Media Keys actually are there:

qtdefaults read category

Replace the word category with the correct case sensitive category you entered above. Let me know if this works!

For anyone interested, the solution for the Media Keys in QT X is:

qtdefaults write MediaKeys "Category" "Key"

Example: Your category is Sorenson Video and your key is 66666666, you would enter:

qtdefaults write MediaKeys "Sorenson Video" "66666666"

This works!

This works for me:

qtdefaults Mediakeys TechsmithCodec 7689c

Thanks!
