QuickTime 7.2 Released

Quicktime is as bloated and horrible as vista itself...

I use quicktime alternative that has all the basic files the same (codecs)
but is smaller, and even lets media player play mov files.

the nightmare combination: vista, quicktime, real player, nero 7.x and
norton!

YOU DONT NEED ANYTHING ELSE TO MAKE YOUR PC CRAWL!!! lol

I'd so love to know why. In XP it was essentially instant on the same
machine. Other players are instant for AVIs or whatever else. It's just QT
in Vista that's artificially slow for some.

QuickTime loads fast on this Toshiba Laptop - Core Dual
2350 Processor with a 5200 hd.

Yeah, but I need my Quicktime to watch my movie trailers and watch that
lovely H.264... yum.

Nero 7.8.5 is running fine here on Vista. I haven't needed Real Player
for about 100 years now, does anyone still use it? QuickTime is the
most poorly named app in the history of computing. There is nothing
quick about it, but it does use a lot of time.

LOL I use Quicktime Alternative also, it sure does NOT let WMP play .mov
files. Did I miss something?

Works on my machine. I double click a .mov file, and it plays on WMP 11
fine. I am using QuickTime Alternative. Vista Home Premium. I don't know if
I did anything special with the install of QTAlt, other then running the
install as admin, but then I run ALL of my software installs as admin. Seems
to avoid a lot of trouble that way...(No UAC prompts from the apps, ever!
