    Vegas Pro v8.0c and Quicktime v7.6.7

    I'll save the Sony Vegas Pro users the trouble. (not sure if it's hit creativecow or not)

    a. You want Security, you will update to quicktimeplayer767.exe

    b. You want to work with .mov files on the timeline, you will roll back to quicktimeplayer765.exe

    YUP, ITS NOW CRAP...

    Only thing I can work out, is some major devs left or were pushed, and a large part was unfinished - and they just ban you for asking why....

    the share is rapidly going down, even if you just look at europe... If you dont believe it, submit the one you believe!!!
