QuickTime 7 Windows Preview Available

Posted by timothy on from the convergelance dept.

Tenken writes "Looks like Apple has finally made available a PC version of QuickTime 7. It seems to perform on par with the Mac release, though the H.264 decoding for hi-def trailers will probably see much more optimization before QT is officially released. The main reason to upgrade is to check out the new hi-def trailers which you can find at the QuickTime site. There are 480p and 720p versions available for the few hi-def trailers, though I'm fairly certain there were also 1080p clips online a few weeks ago."

  2. Mmm... QTTask.exe by Dancin_Santa · · Score: 2, Funny

    Hey Apple! Get rid of QTTask.exe and anything else that tries to quietly install itself without permission.

    It was awfully clever of you to have QTTask.exe re-spawn after deletion. But don't do it again.
