New in QuickTime Pro

QuickTime 7 Pro users enjoy not only all the great features in QuickTime Player, but also the following new QuickTime Pro capabilities:

ÂFloating controls. Full-screen mode now provides floating DVD-like controls for easy access to functions like pause, play, fast-forward, and rewind. Move your mouse and the full-screen controller appears on the screen for several seconds.

ÂCreate H.264 video. Use this codec for all your video encoding needs. Create content ranging in size from HD (high definition) to 3G (for mobile devices), and everything in between.

ÂCreate surround audio. Create a rich multimedia experience for your customers by adding multi-channel audio to your movie. If some of your customers don’t have surround speakers, don’t worry; QuickTime automatically mixes the audio to work with the speaker setup of each user.

ÂImproved movie authoring. Editing tasks are much easier with new hot keys for in and out points. In addition, the Movie Properties interface has been completely redesigned to facilitate simple and efficient movie authoring.

ÂNew AAC constant-quality mode. Create AAC audio files optimized for constant quality rather than a constant bit rate for a consistently high-quality listening experience.

Â3G streaming. Create 3G files for RTSP streaming that are fully interoperable with other 3G streaming handsets and delivery architectures.

ÂConform to Aperture. View a movie’s aperture mode, and choose to have the movie conform to new aperture settings, including pixel shape.

ÂDeinterlace source video. When exporting with the “Movie to QuickTime Movie” option, you can now deinterlace the video by setting an option in Export Size settings.

ÂExport to Apple TV and iPod. New presets allow you to easily export your movies in formats optimized for use with Apple TV and iPod.

ÂConcurrent exports. Export multiple files simultaneously—and continue with your next playback or editing task.

New for Mac OS X

In addition to the capabilities above, QuickTime Pro for Mac OS X provides these capabilities:

ÂVideo recording. With a digital video camera connected to your Mac, you can quickly create video postcards to share with family and friends.

ÂMovie sharing. Easily create a movie file for sending via email or posting to a website.
