I am using various jit.qt.movies - I want to make a standalone that works in mac and in windows
I know windows uses jit.qx.movie?
How do I go about making a standalone for both Operating systems?

Aren't you confusing jit.dx.grab and jit.qt.grab ?
jit.qt.movie is also available under Windows.
For the grab objects you can use jit.grab which is a wrapper for both jit.dx.grab and jit.qt.grab.

Yeah I was a little confused.

Anyways my question I guess is if there is a way to make a windows application from maxmsp 6 osx

you need a mac to compile a Max application for amc, a Windows to compile a Max application for Windows. Though you can make collective for both from one, as well as project/patchers. The difference between collective and standalone application is that you still need at least a max runtime to run the collective.
