There’s also an update for Front Row.
Now my Quicktime is much quicker than the previous version of Quicktime, and the download was quicker the last time since I got a quicker router and my ABS is quicker than the last ABS that I had which was quicker than my old DSL. Someone quickly slap me.

This fixes the issues that caused the MacBook Air to be “pwned” at that gay (yes, I said gay) competition last week…

Before I d/l QT I’m going to venture a guess (based on past experience) that this update does NOT fix:
1. Stuttering and completely stopping the play of some (not all) older mpeg1 movies after scrubbing forward. Been an issue since the last few updates.
2. Missing IN and OUT markers when playing mpeg1 movies. Been an issue since the last few updates.
We’ll see….
Installed QT update. Still the same. So Apple, are you going to drop all support for mpg files in the future? What about those mpg movies I made back in the 90’s, on a Mac? If I had the original files from my camera I’d encode them in h.264, but I don’t. Re-encoding an mpg which is already in marginal quality ain’t gonna cut it.
See, I’ve got this long movie (1 of several) of a helicopter drag race, and you have to scrub to the end to see where I won. But you can’t, you have to watch 30 minutes of it before you can see that part. The other movies… well, I won’t go into that.
(yes, I said gay)
So, it was a happy occasion?
wingsy, you ever think of editing out the boriing part and just have a 3 minute movie?
“This release is recommended for all QuickTime 7 users.”
Yeah and so was the one that totally broke After Effects rendering and third party apps that made movies. Maybe if they actually disclosed what’s fixed WE can decide if its recommended for us.
Ok for all the early adopters and trail blazers can we make the installation success or disaster easy for everyone else?
Just comment Hosed or Not Hosed.
KidPix 3 animations work again. My six-year-old will be pleased
