Hi Ross,
i looked at the new code live.2008.07.24. i feel there is one issue. Now
QuickTimeFileSink constructor is opening the file using OpenOutputFile but
it is not checking the return value. If file open fails the filehandle will
be NULL and may give core dump wherever filehandle is used.
I feel previous interface (older live source base) was correct which used to
return NULL to the user if file open fails.
Similarly for AVIFileSink.
Please let me know your opinion.

Warm Regards,
prb
