Convert to use AVFoundation instead of Quicktime #13

Closed samiamwork closed 11 years ago

Currently Movist builds 32-bit only due to using a Carbon/Quicktime API that didn't make it over to 64-bit land. Since AVFoundation is the way forward for multimedia it's time to convert so we can build 64-bit finally. Also, the latest XCode removes the 10.6 SDK so now is the time.

Unfortunately this requires a decent amount of work because the changes needed are widespread, from opening files to display. I've already started on this.
