When is Quicktime 7 coming for Windows?

Anyone got a clue? The compression ratios are INSANE. Sweet sweet motion compensation, oh how you get me going, baby
 
I can't even BEGIN to imagine the algorithms required. I had a bitch of a time even UNDERSTANDING interframe motion compensation, and H.264 is supposed to compress all motion objects invidually, with varying compression ratios. I don't think you'll be seeing an alternative viewer for a LONG time.

If the internet can come up with beastiality, it can come up with a dynamic compression wrapper reader

Great, keep an uncompressed HD video signal and let me know how well that works for you. It's about 5 gigabits per second uncompressed.

<---300GB of HD....100Mbps:Q

From what I've seen on a powerbook, the videos are EXTREMELY computational intensive to decode. I kid you not, my friend's 867 MHz G4 powerbook got about 5 frames per second on an HD signal. I can't really imagine many PCs, when QT is ported over to x86, being able to even real-time decode H.264. I'd imagine that encoding it would be extremely time-intensive, it's really a format that we'll have to 'grow into.'

It depends on what bitrate and such....

uh..yeah. THer are clips out on the web but they are few and far between and the quality sucks. No HD to be found. The capacity of the codec is still pretty cool for low-bandwidth high-CPU transfers
