Monitoring Quicktime and PT

[cc1]

(since you can't rewire) What is a good way to monitor Quicktime and PT simultaneously -since they both can't access DAE at the same time. I would like them to both be open at the same time. (what about a pair of roland DM series monitors with the optical spdif inputs for monitoring the G5's built-in audio via optical port - analog port sounds too poor). If PT is using DAE and Quicktime is using built-in then both programs could be running at the same time and you could switch between them instantaneously and be able to hear both. Any comments would help.

Thanks,

1. Import Movie
2. Import Audio From Movie
That will give you Quick Time in pro tools and you won't have to switch between aplications.

Thanks for comment and I will do this in the future -note the roland dm-10's are now pluged into the optical out of the g5 - it sounds very good (not noisy like the g5's analog port) and its great not to have to mess with DAE for regular mac audio.
