And, to the guy who has problems with the responsiveness: Sure, only because it is unresponsive on YOUR system, it's shit. For us Mac users, it's some kind of graphic OLE. Most people don't understand that Quicktime is more than a player. People complain about quicktime's interface- but by comparison- ooph.

Quicktime Pro is one of the few reasonably priced applications considering that you can do animation compositing, video editing, basic filter/effects, and a variety of both lossless and high-compression encoding.Īt the very least- it makes Windows Media player look like a joke. There will ALWAYS be codec issues when you get outside of the standard base set- which is pretty extensive considering ITS FREE. mov, which has made any file I've thrown at it play nearly flawlessly. You always need to keep in mind- it's QUICKTIME PLAYER- it has support built in for lots of media formats but it will always work best when working in its own format.ĭivOSX comes with a little application that converts *.avi (which, btw- microsoft no longer supports/is moving away from) to. With most standard mpg encoding techniques- quicktime is fine to IMPORT IT. As for mpg files- there are several different mpg formats- and half of them are based on proprietary codec's belonging to companies that have long since gone bankrupt since the days when VCD hadn't had the coat-hanger treatment.

Your statement regarding avi's is akin to complaining that OSX doens't run on your PC and therefore sucks. mov's? BECAUSE IT'S NOT MICROSOFT'S FORMAT. Why aren't you complaining that Windows Media player has poor support for. The number of products that are built upon quicktime is STAGGERING. Quicktime is easily the most robust media infrastructure that's out there- as long as you're using mac or windows- due to some rough licensing ish apple can't easily release quicktime for unix/linux without dropping a few codecs- and we know how much they hate double standards. I've tried using Yamaha cdrw 6-4-16 external scsi and also internal plextor 12-10-32 and it's no different.
Mpeg2 player for mac mac os#
this is with all versions of itunes in mac os 9 or 10.Īnd my mac is a dual G4/450 with 512mb ram. not audio cus it's the end of the song, about to go to next song, but it'll just sit there. like you'll see the timer say 4 minutes and 32 seconds and instead of going to track 2 or whatever the next is, it'll repeat 4 min 32 sec.

sometimes at the end of a track it will just stop there and try to move to the second track, but won't unless i hit the next track button. when i play back the audio cd sometimes I'll have it pop at me crackel sound. i have wasted more audio cd's in itunes then ever with toast. i have lost more cd's using apples finder burning in mac os 9 then toast ever did. a friend of mine says this is cus of apples finder sucking so bad, but i don't see how cus QT is an app, not the finder.Ĭd burning in finder. try to access any of the file menues and it's un responsive. try to move the window and it is un responsive etc. it is the most pathetic apple application other then itunes that i have ever used.
