Quicktime Without Itunes

[ikonia]

Hello all,

I'm trying to download and install quicktime on an windows platform

Apple started doing a dirty trick where you had to download itunes to get quick time, then uninstall itunes to be left with quicktime on its own, they have now got wise to this and you don't seem to be able to uninstall itunes without removing quicktime.

I'm not keen to have itunes on this system, nor do I want to use quick time alternates.

Can you get quicktime on its own/remove itunes leaving quicktime ?

thanks

afaik they are an unbreakable bundle, i hate quicktime but cant seem to get rid of it without getting rid of itunes, not sure if it works the other way.

they never used to be unbreakable, but downloading the later versions it looks this way to me at the moment.

any use?

The K-Lite Mega Codec Pack contains practically every video and audio codec you're likely to ever use, all standard codecs, can use em in practically any video player.

Hope it helps.

Quicktime Alternative + Media Player Classic does the trick for me. Highly recommended.

over half the replies suggest alternates.

Some good responses though.

As it turns out the latest package is seperatable, however the installer/uninstaller was just "missleading"

thanks for the responses.

mmmmmmm... mplayer *chokes on drool*

fantastic quality output, on par with DivX player (my 9600XT has onboard DivX decoding). except it decodes by software and it supports nearly every codec.

Did you miss this one?

I didn't see it when I was downloading, but I certainly saw it in the responses.

Whats wrong with quicktime alt?
The reson I use it is quicktime doesnt allow you to watch anything in full screen. By using media player classic, you can.

I have QT installed alone, had installed iTunes, but uninstalled just iTunes
