Cinelerra Quicktime Error

I get the following error message when I load clips taken with a Kodak Z1275 camera:

virtual int FileMOV::read_frame(VFrame*):quicktime_read_frame/quicktime_decode_video, failed, result:

The funny thing is that when I close the error message screen and I drag the clip onto the Program Window I can still use the Compositor Window. In other words the error does not seem to disable editing entirely.

Can anyone tell me what this error is about?

Please note that I am still feeling my way about with Cinelerra, am still ignorant of most functions and am amazed that I got this far.

Any comments would be much appreciated.
