There seems to be 2 things to consider when adding Flash to QT4.

1) No Load Movies

2) QT 4 is has strick time management this means frames in Flash will be

dropped to keep QT on schedule.

To prevent the dropping of Frames you can you can set the playback mode

of the movie to "play all frames", which will emulate the playback mode

of Flash Player.
