we can safely say that it was previously broken by accident, not
deliberately. Apple need some videobloggers in their quicktime beta
testing group or something!
Ive lost all my benchmark numbers for previous quicktime ersiobns so I
cant do any long and tedious comparisons of encoding & playback
performance of QT7.1, I assume its still got the much faster m4v
export option that Apple introduced a while ago?
