How many audio channels are you outputting from the ds in you mixer settings when you export the QT?
QT's from the DS can be flakey if you have multiple audio channels going in to the quicktime movie.
Try setting the DS audio output to stereo and see if that makes a difference, unless you've tried that.

All of a sudden neither Cleaner or Procoder will accept my files, we get a general QT error from both programs, we have tried it on several workstations in several rooms and my quicktimes will not work in any room with either Cleaner or Procoder. Here is the strange part, We have one person here who runs cleaner on a MAC, he has NO Trouble at all with any of my quicktimes!?!?

I have tried outputting 16 & 24 bit audio and neither one works when played on the desktop. I also have tried burning my quicktimes to a disk and giving them to my assistant to run through Cleaner, just to see if the network was corrupting the files, this did not work either.
