Quicktime 7.6.6 was just released today.
And the strange thing it says the system version required for it is Mac OS X v10.5 through v10.5.8. It's not even on my software update in 10.6 though I use QT7 a lot for codecs that are not in QTX anymore. I hope they are not getting QT7 die.

And judging by the size of QT7 it is a universal binary. But I'm not 100% sure on that. I didn't download it.

I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and last night downloaded the new iTunes 9.1 update. QuickTime 7.6.6 was included and updated automatically. As you probably know, QT version 7 is hidden away under Applications - Utilities. QT 10 is listed in Applications.

Regards.

That does make sense. And thanks. I do know about that as I use QT7 a lot.
It seems you can not download a standalone intel QT7.6.6. You can only get the UB version or DL itunes to get the intel version.

Good call. I noticed that also that no QT 7 was coming down although the iTunes update was quite large so I figured it was part of the update. Thanks for that. I keep forgetting about QT 10 and QT 7 both being there. :D
