The only way I now is to prevent the exception to be caught by the Crash Reporter. It can be done by disabling your task exception port.

#include <mach/mach.h>

task_set_exception_ports(mach_task_self(), EXC_MASK_BAD_ACCESS | EXC_MASK_CRASH, MACH_PORT_NULL, NULL, NULL)

This is not something I would do in my software as it has some side effects like preventing crash log generation, and it also affect the bugger, but this is what your looking for I think.

Easier said than done. It's QuickTime that's crashing.

I'm calling canInitWithFile first and checking for errors with movieWithFile:error: but in certain instances it will still crash.

The task checks the validity of certain files and in some cases, the task could definitely crash if the data is corrupt - that is the whole purpose of launching a separate task. This is not a problem as the application notifies
the user if the task was not successful.

Perhaps instead of crashing, you should design this tool to return
nonzero if the file is invalid?
