QuickTime Alternative 3.2.2 reviews

Unfortunately, QT Alternative 3.22 DOES NOT work properly with the newest version of the ITunes64 app. Please, CodecGuru, make a new version, or pass it onto someone else willing to take up your work! It's an almost guaranteed bet that Apple's elitist idiots quietly found out who CodecGuru really was and sent him a nasty little letter reminiscent of the IRS! BOYCOTT APPLE!

i had problems with QT not initializing (error 2093) and odd behaviour in settings panes as alredy mentioned in this thread. after much searching and countless cleanings and reinstalls i found nothing, but somehow the old brain kicked in:

went to add remove programs saw an old microsoft visual c++ 2005 redistributable(which is a prerequisite for QT) uninstalled that installed QTalternative(comes with visual c++ 2005 redistributable) everything was fixed: opera, firefox, zoomplayer, mediaplayer(classic). even the original player from apple worked again(don't install alternative and original at once!).

hope this helps

Quicktime doesn't play well on Windows 7 64bit as of today. Thanks to QT Alternative 3.11, I am now enjoying trailers on Firefox without any issue. What a joy!!!

I also had problems when trying to access the settings. Also trying to view Apple Trailers crashes Firefox. Tried v3.0 and all seems ok.

I installed 3.10 on three systems running XP, and there were problems on two of them. While I could still play QT files fine, when I go to QT settings, things became odd.

It would not save any registration info, no matter how many times I entered it. When I click on ABOUT, it would show version 0.0.0.0. Clicking on the AUDIO pane would crash QT. The FILE TYPES pane was almost completely blank.

Reinstalling 3.01 corrected the problem.

I just installed it. It was quick and i could test it. It works fine.

QuickTime Alternative 2.9.2 (contains Quicktime version 7.6.2) does not work for itunes 9.0, which requires Quicktime version 7.6.4.

Why under configuration Quicktime pro is asking me for 4 My registration information?
I thought by downloading the alternative I wouldn't have to register (QT Pro). Quick time was not installed on this computer before. I installed your Quicktime Alternative so I could play .mov files from some edu classes. I'm using Win 7 Ultimate OS, for some reason MCE will play them but The 64bit MediaPlayer does not recognize didn't recognize format. What is the Registration code for Quick time pro/alterntive

I would appreciate your help.

To all those having problems with QTA 2.X., here's the solution: update your graphics drivers - if possible, to the latest versions. I have just done so. And now I can download & watch any qt based clip, without the phenomenon of "browser blocking". (For example, if you have installed NVIDIA Forceware 94.24 WHQL drivers, as I did, please update them to NVIDIA Forceware 185.85 WHQL version. This can also solve some Media Player blockages!)

Why can I not play 3gp files since QuickTime Alternative 176?

Unfortunately, this version of QTA is not working as fine as the previous ones. I think that the developers were in a big rush, if they delivered it without testing it enough. Yes, the enclosed download tool is still usable: you can use it to download, and then, to watch HD clips, either in your default browser, either with your favourite Media player. But I encountered unexplainable problems, with QTA, when I visited the website belonging to Apple Computer. Here's the URL: http://www.apple.com/trailers/. When I tried to watch some trailers, my browser has BLOCKED itself. In fact, with all the usual browsers I have had the same problem. Finally, QTA allowed me to see some clips. But not all of them. I do not know the "internal criterion" after which QTA guides itself, in rejecting/accepting to render certain movies. All the QTA settings were those provided by the default install. I do not know why this version has such a behavior. Maybe the guilt (the bugs) belongs to Apple.

Thanks for this! Works great for me.

Wow Sean, nice of you to skew the rating with a '1' because you somehow can't find the overly-large text that says "Download QuickTime Alternative" at the top of the page. Maybe the internet just isn't for you (or tying your shoes for that matter)?.

Royce: Thanks for the confirm that DL'ing is working again, it's been a long while since that feature has functioned correctly for me (been using VLC to stream/save the HD's).

Flawless and generous program, another reason why community is ALWAYS better than corporation.

Worked for me. No virus shows up if downloaded from MajorGeeks

Nice waste of time. IF the program exists, and IF there is a place to download it on the page, it is cleverly hidden, so unless it is available for download it's not of much use.
