EditableMovie.picture is completely useless. It was hard to work

Now I have nothing I can do.
Use my plugins ;-)
Stepping through a movie is a lot of faster using the plugins.
I knew you were gonna chime in with this.
Christian, I registered MBS just so I could use your movie routines,
and frankly it's been more of a hassle then it's worth. You require
more code, often using function calls that I don't understand, and the
methods you gave me often have negative side-effects such as visual
glitches. In fact I tried using MBS for this routine, and the program
crashed.
To be honest, I kinda feel like I got ripped off. There have only
been two things in the MBS package that I've used because another
alternative wasn't available. One was loading of an icon from a file,
something which probably is available elsewhere and I just haven't
found it yet. The other was loading of a TIFF image with an alpha
mask, which was broken and didn't get fixed until after my license
expired.
I have Mac-only classes that allow you to load icons for files
