QuickTime 7 & H264 at DVinfo.net

Just got an Email from Apple regarding Quick Time 7 with the new video codec H 264 coming soon.

Looks pretty good. Here is the link in case anyone wants to take a look at the info and related pages.

Higher quality playback, lower compression rates, a larger playback screen, and improved user controls top the list of improvements.

Best, AL

Ooh, nice.

I wish Apple would get off their duff and make Quicktime Pro a small, competitive NLE or start selling iMovie for Windows.

And then you'd have one less reason to buy their Macs! So it won't happen! :-)

H264 isn't Mac only though, so everyone will benefit when it becomes more pervasive...
