Reviews for QuickTime 7 Pro for Windows

It lets you watch, and do some basic editing of MPEG-4. For that, it's great. For making magical pixie dust, it sucks.

The general discription of this product leads you to believe that it is professional software for that lets you do more with your media. It is just that, but it has A LOT of flaws. First, the interface and menus are so confusing that it makes it nearly impossible to get anything done. Also, in there are glitches in the software. In the movie properties menu, in visual settings, the whole transormation option is completely useless. When trying to change the offset or size, nothing happens, unless you click "preserve aspect ratio about 3 times. Then, when you exit the menu, your changes reset about every other time. The export menu is okay, but being able to only use 1 effect per movie is extremely lame. Also, the formats that you can convert to and from are not formats that people us or want to change in any way. The audio recorder gives me errors, so that is also useless. The only good feature is its ability to turn text into chapter marks. This software seems like is was quickly and sloppily ported to windows. Basically, if you own mac this software is great. If you don't own a mac, don't waste your time or money.

easy to use

This movie player is so far much better than windows mediaplayer

Well, more like a $30 mistake. Despite many poor reviews (and some good ones) I thought I'd give QT Pro a try. Boy, was I wrong. I found out that the two little asterisks next to MPEG-2 I didn't notice that say you need a $20 plug-in for MPEG-2 playback also means "you cannot import these files". Thanks for telling me that. That is the format that my Sony Camcorder puts out. OK, so maybe I'll cough up another $20 for the add-on, but wait! Searching the reviews I find out that only MPEG-2 VIDEO, not the accompanying audio is supported (also buried in the Apple fine print). So, I find a shareware MPG to MOV converter (converted quality was fair, not great), and discover that the QT Pro editing and titling tools stink. The only good that came out of this was my $30 donation to Apple to fight the evil empire of Microsoft. This software is practically useless, and the warnings of its shortcomings are not explicit enough.

Buy me or look at me, but don't think we'll give you any opportunity to try me out. "For only $29.95, you will be able to . . ." So much hype, for what? Any option to try it out and find how unuseable this is for the average Joe? No way! That would hurt our sales!!
Now forever on the screen will be these unuseable (who cares, except for the appearance) lines of action that will only screw up the actual working of the system. Don't say no way 'cause you know it's the way, always: new programming, new errors, new headaches for the users.
Any choice for the users? Well there should be. But there's no way to use the old version 'cause there's no way to access it now that the "new version" is installed -- even though the new version is not installed as yet, merely sitting there waiting to be paid for by the chump. Marketing, marketing.
Oh, and by the way, I couldn't even give you 1/2 a star, 'cause it was one star or nothing, and even nothing wasn't accepted. So in this case you deserve negative five. Add (subtract)that to (from) your average. Gee, I doubt that that will end up being the case.

the software quick time is excellent product of apple and they are doing wonderful and maganimous service to customers whoever it may be freely to the extent possible.The sw functions beautifully in exhibiting picture views and other related things.As an aged person of 65 years, i am reeping the benifits of Apple services and I wish them success in their of business and come with flying colours in all the spheres.

Those who think they can just use pro at start...don't. Pro is just for those who know what and how to use multimedia tools. It's features though, if you read the directions, are simple and easy to use over all.

THis is a great product for those of you that hae many dvd's for putting them on the iPod Video. Apple continue doing this kind of stuff!!!!!

I am running Quicktime Pro 7 on Win XP with a AMD athlon 1800+ and 256 MB RAM. I had no problems with the install and so far no problems with the operation. It is not intuitive interface for win users. When you are having trouble with an operation just relax and say to yourself "maybe it is just that easy" don't overthink it. It worked for me
