Zprogramz · 08-26-2004, 08:57 PM

I think Quicktime is the cleanest looking video format around.

chupachups · 08-26-2004, 08:58 PM

Oh man... we´re two

Download media player classic - plays .mov .ra ( RA = fucking spyware btw) .avi .mpeg etc etc etc

tyler86ed · 08-26-2004, 08:58 PM

you can choose which file extensions you want it to recognize.

ztik · 08-26-2004, 09:04 PM

I personally don't have it installed on any of my systems. If I really really want to watch a qt video i install it then uninstall after watching. I hate the thing

Exactly.

Tried them all, I far and away prefer using windows media player. It "takes over" nothing, it never auto-starts, it just works the way I want it to work. Everyone has a personal preference, this one is mine.

Doctor Dre · 08-26-2004, 09:11 PM

I'm not talking about the format there btw . I'm talking about their fucking player

Same goes with real player

Realplayer has improved quite a bit, I used to dread using it years ago but find it to buffer faster than anything out there now. The picture quality is still a little weak though..

Perhaps in terms of quality, but do you still have to scroll down in that box (when installing) to see all those shit services they signing you up with?

FTVGirls · 08-26-2004, 09:19 PM

realplayer is evil.

Just read what you are doing... i'm not a fan of real player, just saying it has improved. this is what mine looks like

I agree i'm using real player 10 and the buffering is not even noticeable.

Looks like a quicktime copy

gwilkins · 08-26-2004, 09:36 PM

Everything about quicktime sucks... Crap player, format, compression and pushed on you from a crappy company. If you've ever installed it you can get back some of your memory by opening task manager and killing qttask.exe.. You don't need it. Get used to it though, every time you reboot it will start and the player will edit your registry to add it to startup everytime you play a video...

At least the Real Video's format has good compression. Just use 'Real Alternative'

chupachups · 08-26-2004, 09:39 PM

Just check it!

mardigras · 08-26-2004, 09:40 PM

Uninstall Quicktime and use Quicktime Alternative it plays QT files in classic windows media player.

Uninstall RealPlayer and use Real Alternative to play RealMedia files in classic media player.

Apple = Crappy compagny ? that's totally wrong thought

riosluts · 08-26-2004, 09:57 PM

i dislike quicktime also. I have it installed but I never use it on my computer

Marcus Aurelius · 08-26-2004, 09:58 PM

its extremely buggy, and yeah loves to hijack all your other apps. but its kindof a necessary evil here on GFY.

Dagwolf · 08-26-2004, 09:59 PM

I HATE quicktime. But I do think you can customize it during install so it doesn't take over all your extensions.

warlock5 · 08-26-2004, 09:59 PM

I haven't had any extension or auto-start up problems with quicktime. Maybe I'm using an older version? Real, on the other hand, I won't fucking touch it.

garce · 08-26-2004, 09:59 PM

I'll never install quicktime again. I hate it. The last time I uninstalled it, it still tried to update itself.

Why? I don't use it at all, and I've viewed tons of video files posted here, with my windows media player. I can't recall ever having a problem except for the odd time I don't have the proper codec installed.

Just seems like alot of the vids that get posted are QT.

EviLGuY · 08-26-2004, 10:33 PM

I like Quicktime.. its good quality and a decent filesize.

mardigras · 08-26-2004, 10:45 PM

This is a perfect example of people not reading a whole thread. There have been several threads lately with people bitching about QuickTime or RealPlayer, people post alternatives, others keep posting how much they hate them, then some of the same people are in the next thread bitching about them... sigh
