Looks dodgy if you ask me.
Quite useless features if you ask me :/

And I still prefer winamp :)

i dont even really like quicktime but looks kewl to me.

Quicktime is a good program - it's far better than Windows Media Player. I use WinAmp for music and Quicktime for vds whenever I can.

Quicktime supports many file types and that's the good thing about it and is good to have when you won an ipod :P

However i hate the ad's and the bugs :(

Whaaaaaa... I hate quicktime player... it sucks hell

I've been using Quicktime Alternative for a few months and I like it. It uses Media Player Classic to play the quicktime files and MPC can play almost every audio and video file type (if you have the proper codecs of course).

Quicktime Alternative 1.50 Beta (uses Quicktime 7 codecs)
Quicktime Alternative 1.48 (uses Quicktime 6 codecs)

There is a WMP browser plugin - you just gotta look for it.

I've looked in to it, its enabled etc and it still doesn't work.
I've tried everything and i've given up.
QT handles most video files, just not avi and wmv :(

i hate how it makes me download itunes also :s


RE: Quicktime 7 for Windows by Millenium_edition on 06-17-2005 at 08:36 PM

segosa recently pointed me to VLC player... ( http://www.videolan.org ). it uses its own codecs and plays any file (almost)...

surpasses any player for videos (y)

hmm yeah this is very previewy. i tried it and i think i had forgotten what the word "beta" meant because i was expecting it to work perfectly. all these companies come out with beta products that work really well so i think people are starting to think beta doesnt mean anything (Google being the worst culprit)
and this version of quicktime really brought me back to earth with a crash and reminded me of what beta software used to be like. the HD support is terrible.
the new H264 codec really isnt all that good im hoping they improve it significantly for the final release.
oh and blade i dont see how this is better than windows media player. it seems to be missing a lot of the basic funtions of a media player, i only use it for playing .mov videos.

I like Quicktime for viewing streamed videos. (y), Good little player.

I only got the 7 preview to watch that video from an article on Neowin showing The new Mac OS that's compatible with Intel CPUs running on an Intel laptop because the video was made on a Mac that has 7 included already :P
