After more testing, I saw this on 10.4.8 as well, so this is a  
separate issue.  May be related to the previously reported wonkiness  
with this format.

I haven't received more information from Michael about this  
particular problem he's seeing, but if it is a QLab bug it was almost  
certainly there in the previous version of the cue.  (There ended up  
being only about 5 lines of code that changed to fix the 7.1.5 issue,  
and those would not have affected anything that Michael describes  
above.)

I'm certainly going to actively investigate Michael's report, but for  
the purposes of fixing the 7.1.5 issue I have released version 1.0.1  
of the Video Cue with the fix in place.

Thanks,
Chris
