iTunes 7 Video Problem

Just updated the old PeeCee to iTunes 7, and most (not all) of the video I had is now messed up.

Some video podcasts too, all I get are some strange multi coloured bars, like this:

Help?

I had the same problem. Though it seemed to affect all QT files that were local including Sorenson MOV files and all of my MP4s. Thouigh not stuff online. 😕

Ultimately I beleive the solution was to upgrade the drivers for my video card, although at around the same time I removed Quicktime and reinstalled it from the standalone installer.

So, I'd suggest: Remove QT7.1.3, Upgrade your video driver to the latest available, reinstall QT 7.1.3.

Here's the URL my QT installer was from: http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite....com/mcgonagail/us/win/QuickTimeInstaller.exe

I found a solution.

Hi All,

I had the same problem too. I removed and then reinstalled QT with no improvement. But then I messed with some of the QT preferences and found a solution (at least it worked for my Toshiba notebook).

1. Go to QuickTime Preferences
2. Advanced tab
3. Uncheck "Enable Direct3D video acceleration"

Man, I'm glad it worked out. I practically live off of video podcasts now.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
cktc.

I suspected it was something like that that was fixed in my case with updating the video driver... It probably had more recent Driect3D support.
