jit.qt.movie reports 'flatten 1' but when I use that message to trigger the next flatten operation, it fails.

- expected results: the patch will keep on flattening infinitly

- actual results: flatten fails the second time.

BUT, more important, after trying this patch, when I open the jit.qt.movie helpfile (by alt-clicking jit.qt.movie), Max crashes. This is reproducable.

max 4.5.7, jitter 1.5.2, mac os x.4.8, G5 dual 2.5 GHz ppc

- expected results: the patch will keep on flattening infinitly
- actual results: flatten fails the second time.
- steps to reproduce are in the patch.

Here are the first 4 crashreports:

I can't reproduce your first issue: for me, with Jitter 1.6, it's all 

working, so you might try using the 1.5.3 beta to see if that takes 

I can reproduce the crash, however. I'll see if I can track that down.

I can't reproduce your first issue: for me, with Jitter 1.6, it's all  
working, so you might try using the 1.5.3 beta to see if that takes  
care of the problem.

Ok, I'll check later. In fact the crash is the real problem and I'm happy I found a way to reproduce it in a simple patch. We experience a similar crash after simply flattening once when other stuff is running simultaneously. I could send you some crashreports of those if that helps.
