Now I'm more confused than ever as to what's causing the brightness boost when viewing the file through the QT7 player. The HD trailers on the Apple site look great! Obviously they're probably using much more advanced H.264 encoding software, but still, one shoot be able to tweak such a simple change. :-/

It may have to do with gamma. One of the nice things about MPEG4 is that it allows the gamma correction to be imbedded into the file so it should play fine on PC or Mac. I know you guys aren't talking about cross platform here, but I still think gamma can be involved somehow. I just haven't figured out how.
