QuickTime Pro version 7.1.3

Hi all,
I'm new here; I'm not sure if this topic has been covered before but I'd appreciate some advice on how to customize the way both Safari and Firefox browsers handle MPEG files.
When I visit a web page and click on a link to download a short video clip. It should open up with the chosen media player, QuickTime, but instead it opens within the web page. Funnily enough, it was working properly to begin with but since I downloaded Flip4Mac™ (an add-on that lets you play.wma and.wmv files directly in QuickTime player) any video files format mpeg, wmv, even quick time files now opens in the same webpage. I checked QT, Flip4Mac, Firefox & Safari preferences and even in Mac OS X System Preferences to make sure that there wasn't any boxes (ticked or un-ticked) to instruct QT how to handle the downloaded video, still no joy.
I should also add that I can open WMV files after I save them in the pop-up dialogue box but it's a tedious process. The unsatisfactory work-around I'm temporarily using (on both browsers) is to save the MPEG link file, anywhere in the computer and then open it with QT player.
Thx
MacBook Pro 15.4" 2.33GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Many WMP files open directly in that old Player.
The author of the Web page gets to decide how the QuickTime file is displayed.

My example open in QuickTime and also goes "full screen".

AppleScript can also "pull" the source URL from the page and open it in QuickTime Player.

Can Quicktime Pro version 7 import the WMV video files?

With my previous Quicktime Pro version 6, I couldn't import the .wmv files. Is there any enhancement on Quicktime Pro version 7 to support .wmv files import?

QT 7 still doesn't import .wmv files. There are some plug-ins for Mac systems but so far no one has mentioned any for Windows. Since sometimes people with Macs post in this group (and you don't list your platform in your message) I will include a link to one of the companies that makes such plug-ins for Mac:

Not able to open Windows Media Player files with Quicktime Pro

Hi,
I have recently downloaded a couple of videos that I am planning to use in FCP. The file extension of the downloaded videos is .asf and I am able to play them with Windows Media Player. However, to use them in FCP I have to convert them into Quicktime format. I have Quicktime Pro version 7.0.4 and I was told that I should be able to open the files in Quicktime therefore automatically converting them into quicktime files. It's not working and I am completely out of options and ideas.
Please help if you ever had that problem.
Thanks in advance

As I understand it M$ is providing additional distribution as a sort of "seal of approval."
Don't forget WMV/WMA is a proprietary codec from M$ and involves licensing. In that sense they're providing resources. Apparently the Flip4Mac folks are actually building it themselves though.
Think of it as being in the construction business and you're required to buy the lumber from only one source but you still have to build the house yourself.
I've just got done downloading the newer version and
I hope for improvements.
It looks like M$ is giving some resources to the
flip4mac creators. Maybe a M$ "plant" all along?

QDesign Music 2 not listed as an export codec - QuickTime Pro 7.7.1

I have the current QuickTime Pro - version 7.7.1. for Windows 7.
I use it for my Web design course on audio & video editing.
One of the export codecs supported by Apple in the past was QDesign Music 2, a very good codec. Now I see that this codec is not listed as an export option under "Movie to Quick Time Movie", after the "Enable coding using legacy codecs" is chosen in preferences.
Currently, according to Apple, the technical specs for QuickTime 7.7 shows the QDesign codec as part of the list of supported codecs for audio, but it shows as "decoding only".
Is this telling me that the codec is only supported to play audio made with the QDesign Music 2 codec? - or does Apple still support the same codec for exporting in QuickTime Pro?
Thanks for your help, I look forward to the answer.

Iphone 4 retina and Quicktime "pro" 7 not compatable? *** !

I am disgusted that apple would sell quicktime pro (7) and advertise that it works for the iphone when the iphone 4 has been out for a year now and QT7 does NOT support the retina display resolution (920 x 640). Only the much older lower resolutions are supported for the iphone 4. Also the h264 compressor apple uses is just terrible. Heck even Videora has a far better H264 compressor and its free !
Steve Jobs, you should be ashamed for STEALING my money!
In all honesty, Convert your mov files with Videora for free and they will look 10 x better than any quicktime "pro" version, do not ever purchase quicktime pro as it is a complete waste of your money and amounts to nothing more that a THEFT of your monies ! I should have gone with the reviews as most are clearly very negative on this old product but I didnt think apple could make something this terrible, hmmm, but they did.

I'm glad yer iPhone plays 720p just like mine but that is not the problem I am having. When you find out why qt pro 7 does NOT support exporting ( using the supplied iphone or h264 settings) the iPhone 4 retina resolution then please respond with the correct reason.
You are obviously using the built-in preset options and not custom settings. You are forgetting that Apple's primary purpose when creating pre-sets is to ensure compatibility. These options are programmed for multi-generation devices and, only support, the quality/settings that are compatible with the least capable device. As such, the TV preset is limited to 960x540 display resolution at 30/29.97 fps and a maximum video data rate of 5.0 Mbps. In a similar manner, the iPhone pre-set is limited to 1620 macroblocks/frame (usually a 720x480 or 720x576 max matrix) and 1.0 Mbps video data to maintain compatibility with all previous iPhone models. If you want to make the most of your device's particular capabilities, then either use custom settings or chose a different device pre-set whose output more closely matches what you want to use on your device if you want to use QT 7 Pro to perform your conversions. If you want to use a different converter, than, by all means, feel free to do so. However, since the source of your problem is in your work flow and not the product, I was merely attempting to point out the fact that your previous comments were unjustified.
As far as editing softwares and hardwares go I have everything from autodesk flame/ inferno down to pro and everything in between. Again please respond to my simple question only, why does qt7 not support the latest iPhone 4 higher retina display resolution? As opposed to older lower resolutions.
Let's hope you fully know how to take advantage of all of these hardware/software devices/applications. If you really feel Apple should support each device and generation of device with a separate entity pre-set as created and sold since being released, then contact Apple HERE and register your total dissatisfaction regarding each and every product not to your liking. You, of course, are entitled to your own opinions. Please extend the same courtesy to others.
Qt7 still ***** and is a total waste of money as people can do everything it does better and for free. Screw apple!
I might agree in some instances. For transcoding, I tend to prefer the X.264 codec with custom settings for more extensive analysis, better vector motion detection/rendering, removal of duplicated frames when applying detelecine, and a limited combined deinterlace/decomb filtering option. However, try aging, masking, layering, blending, picture-in-picture/picture-with-picture, and similar compositing options in a "free" utility.

Need Quicktime Pro to save a Windows Mediaplayer video in Quicktime format?

I can't open videos from a FlipVideo Mino Model F360 (MPeg4 standard def.)with Adobe Premiere Elements 7 video editing software. Videos from my Canon EOS Rebel XSi work fine. I'm told it should work if files are saved in Quicktime format. I can't seem to do that unless I buy the Quicktime Pro version for $30. Annoying! Will it work? Is there some other problem here? I get sound but no picture now.

Just move your playhead to the frame you want exported.
go to:
File --> Export
Choose "Movie to picture" as your export option near the bottom of the window
Now you can click on the options button right next to it and choose your desired export format.

Quicktime Pro crashes when I attempt to export

Hello,
I'm using Quicktime Pro version 7.6.6 and I've recently been experiencing this problem when I attempt to export a file from the application.
I'll click 'export' from the file menu, and quickly after the application crashes and displays the following message:
'Quicktime Player 7 quit unexpectedly while using the FLV plugin'
I've removed the 'perian' plugin which I thought it might be refering to, but it still crashes and gives me this meesage each time.
Any ideas how I might resolve this problem?

Download VLC Media Player & Perian to play your .avi files inconjunction w/QT.

Quicktime pro 7.1, Do I have to buy this again just to upgrade??

So I bought quicktime 7 Pro when it came out and now I keep getting a software update that tells me to download quicktime 7.1. Does this mean that I have to buy a whole new key to use 7.1? This seems wrong. I'd like to use 7.1 but not if it is going to cost me an extra $30 everytime quicktime comes out with a new product. please help

if you had a QuickTime 6 pro key, you would have need to buy a new key for 7. but you should be fine if you've already got a 7 key.
Quicktime Pro versions 6 and 7 FAQ

Burning TV shows within toast using Quicktime Pro to edit

I have a replaytv (similar to tivo) and have downloaded a tv show to my mac using DVArchive. I then used MPEGStream to encode the file as an apple intermediate codec file so I could then edit out the commercials within quicktime Pro, version 7. I then dragged the file into toast, where I successfully created a dvd I could watch of the show. However, the top and bottom of the image, on the tv screen, is cut off. That is, it looks kinda like a 16:9 movie, ya know, widescreen format. I have the resolution set within MPEGStream to 720 x 480, which I understand to be tv resolution. Someone in the avsforum suggested that quicktime pro changed the aspect ratio when I edited the file, which is why I'm experiencing the black lines above and below the image. Is that likely, and what settings, if any, can I use such that the video will take up the whole screen? Please help.

I would take a look at the edited file in QuickTIme Pro and see what size it is Window>Show Movie Info. If the size there is 720 x 480, then perhaps there was a setting you missed in Toast-perhaps in the Advanced tab. If the size is different in the edited QT movie, then there might have been a problem in the conversion from Replay TV to the intermediate codec. That's at least a place to start I think. Keep us posted....

Quicktime Pro Selection In-Out Sliders Disappeared

After upgrade from 7.2 to 7.3, the selection sliders at the bottom of the player window went away. Application still shows Quicktime Pro version. Anyone?

Missing the sliders is not acceptable, these are projects that I've been working with in the past. The apple suggests downloading an older version, but the download won't override the problem. This is complete ********!
I have exactly the same problem(s) after the QT 7.2 to 7.3 upgrade. QT has lost the selection In-Out marker features, and the grey highlight between them. This is true for all QT files, including .mov files successfully created by past edits. All worked fine until the last uprade! It is as if my QT Pro registration (and purchase) has been deleted. My System Prefs QT Register panel still shows the correct QuickTime Pro registration code (key).

I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have. Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording? If so, how? Step by step needed. Thank you for your time.

Did you remove Quicktime X?
On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

Unable to use 'copy' feature with registered version of quicktime pro.

Hi.
I have a registered version of Quicktime pro (7.1.6), and i am unable to use the copy feature. I captured several videos from work using a windows box and an application whose name escapes me at the moment. Due to the windows app being garbage, i was only able to capture in MPEG1 format (MPEG2 caused the app to crash, of course). I have brought the files home and am now unable to copy selections of it for exporting into smaller files. I can highlight lengths of the video (no audio, just video) but the 'copy' feature is grayed out still. Any ideas on what is causing this? The video format is as follows:
MPEG1 Muxed, 640 x 480
FPS: 29.97
Data rate: 4066.42 kbits/sec
I'm running 10.3.9, but have also had no success on a 10.4 macmini, so the OS doesn't seem to be the issue.
I'm trying to get this video into imovie, but since it's over 600 megs, imovie cops out after a few hours and says it can't import it.
Help?

Not all multiplexed videos come with AC3. They don't have to have audio in the first place. Some of them come with Linear PCM, which is the case for iDVD's VOB files, and MP2. If a multiplexed video is equipped with AC3, you are right, and the resulting modified sub-clip won't contain audio. But if it's Linear PCM or MP2, the edited sub-clip will contain audio.
I'm finished with this case.

What version of Quicktime is best for Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5?

Hello,
Could anyone tell me what version of Quicktime works best with Final Cut Pro version 6.0.5? Currently I have QT version 7.6.2.
Unfortunately, all the clips are digitizing at 640 x 480 instead of 720 x 480 (I have trashed prefs and checked the sequence settings and Easy Setup, both are set at NTSC 720 x 480). I have also completely re-installed FCP from the original disks.
When I digitize a clip, it digitizes at 640 x 480. When I open the clip itself and look at the properties, the "Presentation" is set to "Clean" (640 x 480) instead of "Classic" (720 x 480). It keeps defaulting to Clean, and therefore digitizing at 640x480.
Should I uninstall QT and go back to an earlier version? If so, which one would be best? Or is there an easier way to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance for any help. I've been struggling with this problem for over a week.

You list Sequence settings and Easy Setup, but is there any chance your Capture Preset somehow got tweaked to NTSC 4x3 (640x480), instead of it's normal setting of DV NTSC 3x2 (720x480)
From the extent of troubleshooting steps you've taken, this would be unlikely, but heck your Capture Preset and make sure it's correct.

Try, in preferences, resetting 64 bit to 32 bits. Should work fine. the older vidoes, etc will not work with 64 bit. Had the same problem/scare. Let us know if this helps and works!
