QuickTime Movie Loads in 32 bit but not 64 bit

Running Sonar X1b.  I have a project with a QuickTime movie which I can import in Sonar 32-bit but not 64-bit.  In 64-bit I get 'file unrecognized'.  I installed the latest version of QuickTime but that did not help.  The MOV file will open in both QuickTime and Windows Media Player.

    Right. QuickTime doesn't support 64bit. It's a limitation of Quicktime, not Sonar. Lot's of people are unhappy about it.

    Do yourself a big favor.  Convert the QuickTime (or any pic file you get)  into an Mpeg1 or AVI file if you are working with Sonar.  Like Bub correctly points out,  it is not always Sonar's at fault...although Sonar is weak in this area.

    Thanks.  At least I know what the issue is now.  Where the limitation is depends on your POV.  For example, Cubase 64-bit also uses QuickTime and works OK in Win 7.
