Fullscreen playback now in free Quicktime

By Liam, July 12, 2007

Quicktime 7.2, released on July 11th, was not a major update. It fixed a few bugs and patched a few security vulnerabilities. It also added fullscreen video playback to the free version of Quicktime, a feature that has remained Quicktime Pro only for a long time. Many have wondered why that is, but now Apple has had a change of heart.

thinkback

1.

Fullscreen mode in any application is an anathema to multitasking. Use of screen estate has always sucked in Windows why fullscreen mode has always been more interesting there, necessary even.

So maybe this one will make one or two Windows users happy.

wtf

I don’t think full-screen video playback has anything to do with multitasking. Most people I know don’t multitask while watching a video.
