Some further string-hunting in the Quartz Composer framework has revealed an interesting value:
QCShowPrivatePatchSettings
It looks like Quartz Composer is reading a value with this key from the global user defaults repository.
In fact, enabling it by bringing up Terminal and typing
defaults write -g QCShowPrivatePatchSettings 1
causes Quartz Composer to present some additional options for well-known patches.
This release is only compatible with Tiger (10.4).Please see kineme.net for Leopard-specific informations.
“Billboard” now includes “Force Pixel Alignment” and “Ignore Rendering Destination Pixel Aspect Ratio“ checkboxes:

And “Image With Movie” now includes “Mask Compatibility” and “Deinterlace Fields“ checkboxes:
| Before | After |

I haven’t spent a lot of time playing with it yet, but so far the only change I’ve observed is that the “Mask Compatibility” makes the Movie black-and-white. The ability to disable Deinterlacing looks particularly exciting but I don’t have any interlaced video around to test at the moment.
