I have download the latest QuickTime tools from Apple and installed
them. It looks like the OCX is installed and usable directly in
your compiler. It also comes as a VBX. I have tested it in a junk
application and adding the QT VBX opens its property sheet.
I didn't explore any further, but it looks like you can use it
free of charge.
