You’re right, but it’s not the filetype that’s the issue here. Trying to blame these kinds of things on the application developers is pure insanity. You’ll find much of the same with almost any onboard RAID-capable chipset. Hell, just search around, it’s not like this is some isolated thing: NET Framework? Despite the fact that the actual problem is with nVidia’s failure to release properly coded Vista drivers?Īs for “There’s no problems with Nvidia in any other I/O application”, that may be true for *you*, but you certainly can’t generalize it enough to claim it’s not nVidia’s problem. Would you then say that not only is this Apple’s problem that they need to fix in QuickTime, but it’s also Microsoft’s problem that they need to fix in the. Now a malicious web-launched application can cause a local DoS, possibly leading to data loss, despite passing all the security and best-practice checks in the. Suppose, for example, the I/O access pattern that trips this bug (or the RAID one) is one that could be performed by an application using the. Sure, Apple could work around it, but they’re NOT the ones you want “fixing” this problem.

Again, this looks like an actual driver bug. That reply assumes the problem is with the _application_. Why are you making such sensationalist claims without evidence? You usually do much better than this!

The PC industry is already unreliable enough without people making it worse by failing to engage their brains. (In some ways it’s rather unfortunate - VLC isn’t capable of frame-stepping, for instance.) If it doesn’t do the same things, of course it’s not going to trip the same bug.Ĭlaiming the bug is in the application is not only wrong, it’s extremely dangerous: if everyone believes you and the driver bug doesn’t get fixed, then someday another application will happen to trip the same bug and something even worse might happen. VLC’s I/O subsystem is nothing like QuickTime’s. A bug exists in the driver, and an application’s unique behavior just happens to tickle it. Of course, the answer is simple: it doesn’t. Is Apple installing a driver that stomps all over nVidia’s stuff, causing it to misbehave? No? Then how does QuickTime magically screw up something it can’t actually touch? No matter what, an application *is not capable* of causing such problems. The RAID one you linked to is particularly scary. But why would you jump to the conclusion that it’s QuickTime’s fault? How does another application working somehow prove that it’s NOT nVidia’s bug? Where on earth did your critical thinking skills go? Okay, I get that QuickTime doesn’t work as expected here, while VLC does. My message to Apple, “you’ve had more than 3 years to mock Vista, don’t be a hypocrite.”

But if Apple’s not going to fix their problems in their software, then there’s no really not much choice left.

I’m no Apple-hater, I want to use Quicktime, which is why I’m spending so much time and energy trying to make it work.

Who knows how many people this problem affects, considering there’s plenty of Vista users out there (*shock*), Nvidia is a wildly popular chipset choice for both Intel and AMD users, and SATA hard drives are becoming if not already mainstream. Which strikes me as odd because VLC Media Player can manage the same files just fine as demonstrated.

What ticked me off after spending almost 3 hours uninstalling and reinstalling most drivers in my system is that Apple even recognizes and publically acknowledges this bug in their knowledge base, however points the finger at Nvidia as the culprit. I couldn’t find any earlier versions to test but I’ll presume it’s the same since Apple didn’t even support Vista at that time. This problem occurs in both of the latest versions of Quicktime, 7.1.5 and 7.1.6 ( update: and even 7.2 released today).
