Quicktime 7
I’ve been paranoid about installing Quicktime 7 on my Premiere/AE system. However, lately it seems I’m being emailed QT7 files more and more, and copying them to another machine just to look at them is getting silly.
I can’t seem to find a simple answer about Quicktime 7’s compatibility with Premiere Pro 2 and After Effects 7. Does it work, and are there any issues I should be concerned about? -

Seems to depend on the system.
I installed QT 7, and Premiere Pro 1.5, Photoshop and Encore DVD all stopped working.
But others have installed without incident. -
I’m using QT6.5 with the production studio, I’ve got QT7.1 on a laptop I use for the internet with no problems, since the production studio only requires QT6.5 and there have been a bunch of horror stories I thought I would err on the side of caution.

Can I ask what your system(s) specs are? I just can’t seem to find a definitive “it works if you do this/it doesn’t work if you have that” solution. Both Apple and Adobe are silent on this issue.

[Steven L. Gotz] “Windows XP Pro

Just be wary. There are a couple of gotchas with QT7. If we try to export an avi from a quicktime file it will repeat every 27th or 28th frame in the sequence, dropping the frame after. This may only be with PAL 25 fps sequences but I wouldn’t bet my life on it.
