KeR Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I wonder if the Windows release will allow for Live Resizing...its just incredible on my Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b mitchell Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Well I do know that QT7 still doesn't include free fullscreen mode, so anyone who was looking forward to seeing those floating fullscreen controls need to get ready to shell out 30 bucks. Or you could be naughty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max84 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Will the H.264 HD codec also be in the windows version. Hopefully yes. So we can watch those new HD trailes. Have been waiting for such a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theyarecomingforyou Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I don't remember a Quicktime update that was actually interesting and I envisage that this will be much the same. Perhaps Apple could release it with a Windows interface, as the brushed metal look is really out of place (and not very nice :no:). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
