Don’t install QT 7.4 on your production machines!
[Via Slashdot: Apple QuickTime DRM Disables Video Editing Apps]
According to numerous posts on Apples discussion forums several threads of which have been deleted by Apple, as well as a number of popular video editing blogs, Apples recent QT 7.4 update does more than just enable iTunes video rentals — it also disables Adobes professional After Effects video editing software. Attempting to render video files after the update results in a DRM permissions error. Unfortunately, it is not possible to roll back to a previous version of QT without doing a full OSX reinstall. Previous QT updates have also been known to have severe issues with pro video editing apps.
Of course, you knew never to install any software or OS update (mac or windows) without first waiting to see if there were any reports of problems, right?
