Yes (MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo built in iSight under 10.5.2)

Oddly, when I run this, I too see a somewhat confused looking middle  
aged man - go figure ;^)

Recording to a file works as expected

I also know little to nothing about QTKit, but the code looks quite  
sensible to me, if a little bit hairy, but I'm pretty sure that the  
hair is all apple's and not yours.

I would make some remark about this probably being due to that whole  
middle aged thing again, but never having met you I don't know whether  
you still have your hair or not ;^)
