Unnecessary. 1.70 no longer supports anything older than WinXP, and if you can stomach XP, you don't need QT alternative. It's still a hack, it still doesn't support all QT, and the official QT player is no more annoying than XP in general. As long as you have a third-party player for all your QT formats, the official player will politely go away.
On the other hand, setting RealPlayer, QT, and WIMP to fight over file associations is still more amusing than most movies.

Great tool!
HD content plays great in media player classic.
However in WMP 9, I get HD video but no audio. If I play a standard file I get audio. Weird that one player would play it the other not.
Of course this also means MCE plays video only, no audio (again, only for HD content from Apple site).
Keep up the good work!

Why does it ALWAYS delete all previous Media Player Classic settings from the registry and revert to the stupid legacy (non-noadmin-compatible!) INI file when I install a new version?? This is really not understandable for me.

The Directshow Filter works well, EXCEPT that it seems to hold the wrong kind of file lock. When playing a .mov in Media Player, I can't then open the file for read access [eg C# - FileStream fsIn = File.Open(sourceURL, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read) throws an exception].
Any chance you could fix this, please, or provide the source so I can fix it? Cheers.

V1.70 is a real improvement over 1.69, the only problem I've got is I can't view movie trailers in H264 Codec format.

Nice work. Doesn't work flawless with some websites in Firefox though. I then get the message that I have to download a missing plugin, and when I click that option, it doesn't know which plugin that is. Didn't have that problem with the same website in IE.
But most of the time it works.

To solve crash problem, you need to delete c:\windows\system32\quicktime and c:\program files\quicktime, they are some old quicktime remainings...

solved my problem (email from 18.April below). Some hints are in the QTA FAQ. I switched AAC audio decoding in ffdshow from "libfaad2" to "realaac", now all MPEG4 movie decode and play great...

QTA 1.69 + ffdshow works quite well on my system, but some MP4 movies play with "fast forward", it seems the player and decoder don't interpret timings correct. Anyone seen the same issue?
Also, some windows registry settings were not set correctly after install. After clicking on a MP4 file, the system responds with "file not found". By changing the registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\mplayerc.exe\shell\open\command
and adding quotes to the parameter %1 it works: "%1" Problem happens, when the filename or path to open contains spaces.

Works in Opera/IE, but doesn't work in Firefox. When I go to the Quicktime HD gallery, I get the broken icon that directs me to download the quicktime plugin when I click on it. In Opera/IE, I see the 480p/720p/1080p icons, and I'm able to download the mov files when I click on them. Not so in Firefox.

This is a nice program. Thank you for making it. I can use my MSIE (the latest) and QuickTime movies play fine. There are green screens sometimes however.
QuickTime movies do not work with the latest Mozilla Firefox. If I copy everything in the plugins folder for QuickTime Alternative to the plugins folder for Firefox, it kind of works in Firefox but I get a lot of green only screens for QuickTime videos.

Great program, but sadly audio still doesn't work in windows media center for the HD movie trailers from apple's quicktime site. It works fine in the classic player. If this problem is fixed this prog would get an excellent rating.

There is also an issue in the Media Player Classic. It is located in the .ini file, don't know the exact setting that causes it.
But a DVD playes choppy sound as well, but when i remove the .ini file and play it again, no problems!
So take a look at the ini cause it's not working corretly!

Any idea how to fix this?

Trying to play some m4v files, which play (stream) in the browser, but when downloaded, QTA won't play them. Why? Also IE's download prompt wants to save them as mp4 files.
I prefer to watch them outside of the browser since the white surrounding in browser screen makes them harder to see.

Is there not a fix for the problem of QTA taking over MP3 association? Checking QTA's Settings->file associations, nothing is checked (even for MOV etc).

i've been a big fan of this program for quite awhile; the issue with being unable to play files with the '.m4v' extension with it was a hassle until i recently installed the latest version of 'ffdshow', now they work fine:

anyone else have the same results?

I am having the same problem as AlbertM with 1.68 final. Does not initialize, will not play movies. Neither the Mozilla nor the IE plugin will work, and neither does the codec for windows media player.
In addition, going to the File Type box crashes the control panel dialog.

I had the latest version of quick time installed. When I installed QT Alternative 1.67, both the quick time as well as media player classic pop up the same quick time window that it needs to update some components. Any one know any solution.

v1.68 - Very good app but it does not yet support H.264 as far as I can tell. The only way I can get h264 to work is to install bloatware or FFDshow's codecs but they screw with 3ivx. I try to keep my system as slim and trim as possible.

I'm afraid this update doesn't agree with my system...
I had been using version 1.4 of QT Alternative for months, and it had worked flawlessly. The new version conflicts with a number of software programs that I need to run, and is thus unusable for me... I hope this gets resolved.
Another thing - this version insists on playing back mp3s and other files from the internet - which I do NOT want it to do because it is slow and inconvenient. I ONLY want it to play back .mov files, since unfortuneatly there are people out there who insist on using this crippleware format...
