Okay, I solved the other QT problems I had, but this one has me puzzled. When I send a timecode to QT to launch a specific part of a movie, I can't seem to pull the correct record from FMPro. The script looks like this:

set the thatMovie to cell "Episode" of layout 0 of database "Library"

set the inPoint to cell "TimeIn" of layout 0 of database "Timecodes"

...

tell "QuickTime Player"

activate

open file thatMovie

set the current time of movie 1 to inPoint as number

etc.

What I always get is the first record in the list, even though the script is being run from a particular record. How do I pick a particular record? What am I missing?

Just change the lines that set the variables to the following:

set the thatMove to cell "Episode" of layout 0 of current record of database "Library"

set the inPoint to cell "TimeIn" of layout 0 of current record of database "Timecodes"
