Toast Video CD support plug-in causes error messages Apps
Having been plagued by this pretty much harmless error in my log files for a long while, I finally googled and came up with what was creating the following error message:
## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt)
What's causing the message is the "Toast Video CD Support.qtx" file in /Library/QuickTime. If you don't need Toast Video CD support in QuickTime, you can get rid of that file, and the error all in one step.

[Editor's note: I don't have Toast, so I can't really test this one out.]

This pops up in my log FAR too often:

## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (regR/carP/x!bt)
## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (imdc/MP42/MSFT)

Any ideas?

Does not work

Sorry - but I beg to differ with this hint. I have had these darn msgs in my console log since I can remember - well over 6+ months ago. I read about this tip of removing the Toast component about 2 weeks ago and removed it as described. Console still full of msgs. I always get this one...

## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (imco/SVQ3/SMI )

Sorensen Video Pro OSX

That one is coming from the Sorensen Video Pro OSX.qtx QuickTime plugin, I suspect. So, it might be that it is more some kind of QuickTime component responsible for the various plugins that is dumping these console messages...

Does not work - imco/SVQ3/SMI

I also get this constantly:
## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (imco/SVQ3/SMI )

Along with this:
WindowServer[186]: Reserved range exhausted. (0xbbf0d000 to 0xbc413000 goes out of bounds)

I have been haunted by these through all the updates, currently running 10.2.6.

I had suspected something to do with Sorenson (assuming SVQ3 stood for Sorenson Video for Quicktime 3). I had an old beta Sorenson MPEG4 that would bark at me with a pop-up saying it was expired. I finally removed the .qtx files from /library/quicktime/ in hope that might solve it. I got rid of the pop-up, but I'm still getting these console messages.

I've had this throughout using Quicktime Pro 6 and 6.3.

These 2 messages start straightaway when I reboot and fill my console log ad infinitum. I just think this can't be good. My paranoia gets the better of me, and I wonder if some of my finder crashes aren't related.

Anyone have any thoughts? I've hunted info all over, and I eventually get blurry eyed, give up, and drink some vodka.

The question is. Is someone NOT getting this error or a similar one popping in the Console constantly? I have seen it in every single computer running Mac OS X ## Component Manager: attempting to find symbols in a component alias of type (imco/SVQ3/SMI )

My PowerBook G4 does not. My G4(Gigabit) Dual does constantly, and I do not have the Toast VCD plug-in installed.
