This software is used for wrapping QuickTime files in a package format for non-native file formats. It is designed to simplify the process of working with these file types.
One of the downsides of using these plugins, however, is that some of these file formats need to be fully indexed, which can take a while and has to happen every time you load the movie. Luckily, with the WOV Suite (wrapper of video), you can store the original file and a QuickTime reference movie representing the fully indexed file together. This way, you can open files almost instantaneously using apps that support native QuickTime movies, while still retaining the ability to open the original file in Non-QuickTime apps and rebuild the reference movie when the plugins change. Plus, you can take advantage of QuickLook all wrapped in one convenient document icon.
Now, you might be wondering what exactly is included in the WOV Suite. Here are the three main components:
1. WOV Opener: This tool opens a WOV package in any application that supports QuickTime natively or the Original Wrapped file.
2. WOV Converter: This tool converts non-MOV files supported by a QuickTime import plugin into WOV packages.
3. WrapperOfVideo.framework: This framework makes it easy for other Cocoa applications to support WOV packages without WOV opener.
Overall, if you're looking for a way to enhance your QuickTime experience and make it more compatible with a wider range of multimedia files, then the WOV Suite is definitely worth considering. Just keep in mind that it is licensed and distributed under the terms of the Mozilla Public License 1.1.
