After 10 years and with millions of users
worldwide, Apple's QuickTime player still provides
one of the best solutions for digital media.
Whether you're watching streaming movie trailers
online or diving headlong into QuickTime as a
creation platform, you'll find little to quibble
about in this veteran player.
Its few quirks are quickly offset by the elegant
Apple interface and the top-notch audio/video
playback quality. QuickTime 7 comes in two
varieties. The free standard player handles
popular audio, graphic, and video formats,
including the much-ballyhooed H.264 and MPEG-4.
Also, for $29.95, you can upgrade to the
content-creation-friendly Pro version, which adds
features such as full-screen playback, easy
editing, H.264/MPEG-4 production, and the ability
to save movies from the Web.
MPEG-2 support is available, but at an additional
cost of $19.95.High-definition content looks
impressive with the new H.264 codec, but hardly
better than with similar offerings from Microsoft.
The stylish transport controls and the friendly
layout work well. Inclusion of the autoupdate and
automatic-network-detection features make getting
started and staying current easy.
Overall, QuickTime 7 continues to be a must-have
for anyone surfing the Web or looking to
experience the best in digital media.

Publisher's description
From
Apple :
Just launch QuickTime Player, and
there's no telling where you're
likely to land. The Player may
whisk you to the Moon or perhaps
to an exotic location on this
planet. Take you on a virtual
field trip to the National
Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
Or treat you to the latest news,
movie trailers, music videos, HBO
series or PBS specials. That's
because QuickTime 7 Player takes
advantage of the latest video
compression technology. It's
called H.264, and it's an
important new industry standard
that's quickly garnered widespread
support. Chosen as the
industry-standard codec for 3GPP
(mobile multimedia), MPEG-4 HD-DVD
and Blu-ray, H.264 represents the
next generation of video for
everything from mobile multimedia
to high-definition playback. H.264
icon.
What's new in this version:
Version 7.6.4 includes changes
that increase reliability, improve
compatibility and enhance
security. |
