Hi Charles,

> I use ImageJ to import short, high-speed QuickTime movies

Have you tried importing your movies using Bio-Formats (File > Import >
Bio-Formats), which comes bundled with the Fiji distribution of ImageJ? (
http://fiji.sc/)

Depending on the codec you use [1], it might get you going again. And it
would allow you to use the 64-bit version of ImageJ, too.

Regards,
Curtis
