I've created a custom content type with a content template that uses the shadowbox control. Everything works fine for images and flv files, but quicktime files will not display. Shadowbox launches, but loads nothing. I've tested the same functionality using a manually coded html page and all media types (including quicktime) display correctly, so the quicktime issue appears to be limited to the drupal module rather than the shadowbox source. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Having just downloaded Shadowbox 5.x-2.0 myself so I can install it on a client site I have just re-read the README.txt file and seen the QuickTime issue in the Known Issues section. Please see that and let me know if it resolves your issue.

Sorry I didn't see that comment. Unfortunately that doesn't solve my issue because I'd like to use Quicktime to display QTVR files, not simple Quicktime video files.

Do the QTVR files have the .mov extension?

It's really weird. I can't see what could be wrong here. Any further information to report?

I've found the issue, in the module function "shadowbox_construct_header", there is a line missing :

drupal_add_js($path .'/shadowbox/build/player/shadowbox-qt.js');

So none of the qt components are being loaded.

One question with this, is it possible to load these files dynamically rather than all of them every time. That way when you turn off some of the various types it would speed up page load.

Cheers,
Nick

Yes, this is something I've been trying to do dynamically based on the supported media options. I'm opening a new issue for this so we can track it more easily:
