10.5: Add Quick Look support for certain file formats
Authored by: CraigK on Nov 08, '07 05:17:05PM

Could do us a favor and post what you added to where to get Quick Look to work with flv files?

With the Perian codecs they play just fine in QT Player, but as you know - they don't show using Quick Look.

Thanks!

10.5: Add Quick Look support for certain file formats

Try adding something like that to the end of a plist of any application, like VLC, the application itself is not important. I'm not sure, but maybe it is possible to add the definition to Info.plist inside perian.component. something like that:

	<key>UTExportedTypeDeclarations</key>
	<array>
		<dict>
			<key>UTTypeConformsTo</key>
			<array>
				<string>public.movie</string>
			</array>
			<key>UTTypeDescription</key>
			<string>FLV Video File</string>
			<key>UTTypeIconName</key>
			<string>generic</string>
			<key>UTTypeIdentifier</key>
			<string>org.perian.flv</string>
			<key>UTTypeReferenceURL</key>
			<string>http://www.macromedia.com/</string>
			<key>UTTypeTagSpecification</key>
			<dict>
				<key>public.filename-extension</key>
				<array>
					<string>flv</string>
				</array>
			</dict>
		</dict>
	</array>
