Half- and double-size scaling is implemented.

The player for Quicktime under Windows is *EXACTLY* like the QT 1.0 version
for the the Mac. You get a sound control that has a pop-up slider. a
play/pause button, a slide-rule type slider, step forward/back buttons, and
a resize button. Clicking inside the player window pauses playback.
Dubl-click to continue. 

Reading through the API overview for QTW last night I remember coming
across a passage claiming something like if you're familiar with
programming QT for the Mac, than you'll be right at home with QTW.
Functionality is very closely matched.

Now performance, that's a whole 'nuther critter I'd just asoon keep jawside
outsidah.

cheers,
