Jamie is right
Do NOT USE the libquicktime from fink. There is a version included with pidip source
libquicktime.so.0 or .2 that should be used.
I had this same problem with the fink version.

Hi and thanks for your assistance
Well sorry to be stubborn and a pain but I still can't get any codec to work. I had already tried all codecs but I re-tried them all again making sure to follow your suggestions. I used both Quicktime 6.5 Pro and Jitter to create the .mov files. I also experimented with argb and YUV. Always the same. Some examples below:
As well I experimented with other RC versions (RC5,6, and the newer .39 tests). Version RC7 would recognize most codecs as OK in the console, then crash after about 30 sec. The newer .39 test don't correctly load PDP/PiDiP. Info below as well:
I removed everything and reinstalled the OSX PD and X11. What can I try next?
...ok, so I tried some old files that used to work with pdp_qt/ pdp_yqt, but they don't currently: I can only guess that the fink version of libquicktime that I compiled the RC8 version of pdp/pidip has screwed up something...
...however, you could always use open the file in gem with [pix_film], then feed that into [pix_2pdp], process with pdp/pidip, and finally return it to gem with [pdp2gem]...you're especially lucky if you have the latest cvs of gem and pix_2pdp/pdp2gem, because I recently made the YUV/YV12 conversions fully altivec'ed (as are YUV2BGRA/BGRA2YUV)...
...another thing to note is that no matter what you use, you will get better performance if your movies have dimensions that are multiples of 16, like 320x240, 640x480, 336x224, etc...this will ensure the altivec path, and generally makes the cpu and memory managers much happier...
