OT: Quicktime

[Baron Munchausen]

QT puts some sort of process in your "autorun" list when it installs. I presume there is some 'normal' way to access your autorun list and remove it, but Gargantua's suggestion is the only way I currently know. Apparently it still runs fine without the process in the background, too, so yo uhave to wonder why it does that other than sheer power grabbing. Yes, all of the major names ar egetting to be very pushy and it's become extremely annoying. I'm using WMP 6.4 and RealPlayer 8.0 and I'm NOT going to upgrade either to the newer, grabbier Versions. I hope some multi-format 'third party' util appears before it becomes too hard to access things with the older players.

MOO 3 was originally going to use QT for the in-game animations but I hear they've had second thoughts and are researching a different option.

Hmm, I wonder if they are going to use BINK.

Irfanview ( http://www.irfanview.com/english.htm ) is a pretty good viewer; small program, handles just about any format of audio, image, or video, and allows you to easily convert between formats using "Save As".
