The overall system was usable, except for the being able to use run the interface to the disk; however the useful content (the interviews) are not usable
* The problems with the data is that subtitles for videotaped interviews do not display.
* The subtiles are embedded in a Quicktime MOV container as a Adobe/Macromedia Flash channel.
* Apple disabled support for Flash in Quicktime MOV files due to security problems. Subtitles can only render on version of Quicktime prior to 7.3.1.
* The subtitles appear to be inserted into the media in a single text box. This has not been confirmed.
* Subtitles can be converted to bitmaps using an earlier version of Quicktime Pro.
* Versions of Quicktime of appropriate vintage can only run on MacOS X version prior to 10.5
* Versions of Quicktime of an appropriate vintage can run on Windows XP, and possibly on later versions of windows.
* License keys for Quicktime Pro for windows appear to be different from those for Mac.
