Awesome, thanks! Helps out a lot when I’m snagging more than 5 videos at a time, since mds was, indeed, killing VLC’s frame rate.

…man that looks shitty. but it works. essentially it copies back the movie qlgenerator file to where OS X expects it and then tells OS X to rebuild the list of QuickLook plug-ins.

To reverse it completely, you’d do a:

sudo cp -r ~/Documents/Movie.qlgenerator /System/Library/Frameworks/QuickLook.framework/Resources/Generators/Movie.qlgenerator

and then:

qlmanage -r

to rebuild the QuickLook generator list.

So how easily reversible is this? I do use Quicklook for video, since it loads much faster than VLC for the most part…
