Hi Alan.

I don't know the answer to that last question of yours.  I have wondered it 
myself in relation to online annotation of video (quicktime, flash, 
realMedia, anything that streams).

Recently I picked up an O'Reilly book called "Quicktime for Java" that I 
hope will give me a few clues.  I may have to finally learn Java for 
real.  Or maybe it is something more straightforward... dynamically 
changing an external xml file with perl??? (in which case you would need 
another small window interface in addition to the quicktime player)
