Code provided for "e.getSource( ) == fwdButton" case

The code presented in Chapter 2 for stepping *forward* through frames is incorrect (or, at least, does not function correctly on Windows using QuickTime 7.1.6). Specifically, when clicking on the "+" button to move forward on a frame-by-frame basis, nothing happens.

When the code for stepping forward through frames was extracted into a stand-alone console application, it worked for moving forward from the frame at time 0 to the next frame, but subsequent attempts did not change the movie's position.

"...if you do program in Java and you are interested in developing QuickTime applications, then QuickTime for Java(TM): A Developer's Notebook by Chris Adamson (O'Reilly, 2005) should be on your bookshelf. Better yet, it should be propped open on your desk as you work your way though it."
