Quicktime vid in 64 bit DAW

I only point this out, because I would like Cakewalk to catch up in this area:
 
Pro Tools 11, 64 bit, imports and plays Quicktime movies with outstanding quality.  Their video engine is impressive.  Quicktime movies in a 64 bit DAW CAN be done bakers!  I don't know how, but you guys are much smarter than me.  Maybe Cakewalk and Avid can trade some secrets, Avid teach you how to improve your video engine and you teach them how to simplify track templates, effect chains and customer service :)

    All you need are the codecs for 64 bits. Apple hasn't provided any and CW wont. You can get third party ones. I use Shark007. in comes in 32 bit which has to be install and then you install the 64 bit ones. Sonar will play back mov files with these. They are available for Win 7 and 8.

    Most of us already have the codecs to play x64 Quicktime codecs... that's why we can play them with Quicktime Player etc.
     
    It's the x64 Quicktime for Windows framework that we've been waiting on to play them in SONAR.
     
    Maybe Avid just just launches Quicktime and is using the codecs we already have and side steps the whole framework in the host app issue?

    Actually, this is one of my ONLY gripes with Sonar. If the bakers were to put some more development into the video department, it would make life so much easier for the composers who score to picture (myself included). They just need to adopt features found in DP8 for example.
     
    I have found that Sonar loves using .AVI with a .265 codec. You can download a free converter, such as Wondershare, which does a great job at converting from just about any format. Most importantly, I wish Sonar had the ability to export a Quicktime file (with sound).
     
    Hopefully X3 will be the one!

    I've been doing some small post audio mixing to video lately.  Although PT is set up to do this more efficiently, I could do most of the work in Sonar if needed, minus the horrible video handling. 
     
    Thanks for the link John!  I'll try it out
