Hi,

the following script to perform audio recordings via QuickTime Player  
does not work:

tell application "QuickTime Player"
	activate
	set newMovie to (new audio recording "QuickTime Player")

	start newMovie
	delay 2
	stop newMovie	
end tell

I get the following event log:

tell application "QuickTime Player"
	activate
	new audio recording "QuickTime Player"
		«class id 2
	start «class id 2
		"QuickTime Player got an error: Can't make «class id 2 into type  
reference."

However, this script works:

tell application "QuickTime Player"
	activate
	set newMovie to (new audio recording "QuickTime Player")
	start document 1
	delay 1
	stop document 1
end tell

What's the difference between the two?

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Christoph
