Title: Quicktime 7 now available
Post by: BFG on April 29, 2005, 12:16:41 pm
Check your software update, quicktime just popped up on my list! :)

What is rather annoying is that apple seem to have squeezed more of what were the 'normal' functions into what is now only available under the 'pro' options... you can't even open a new qt window if your a normal user!!

Mind you... its a petty complaint when they are giving you H.264!!  ::applause::

a QT update popped up in your Software Update in Tiger? hmm, either i installed it already without really noticing or there's something wrong here...

What ticks me off is that I just upgraded to Quicktime Pro about a month ago, and now my registration code is useless under version 7.

yeah that sucks Ass GS - there should be some kind of QT Pro upgrade price rather than being expected to fork out every time for the full wack

The advanced H.264 codec makes it possible for QuickTime 7 to play back High Definition video on a personal computer without additional hardware required. However, you'll still need a G5 system to display so much media.

Even though you are playing it on an G4, it says on the website that the videos are made to work on a G5. A minimum of 1.8 Ghz. But it seems to work good on your computer anyway.
