QuickTime Alternative

QuickTime Alternative will allow you to play QuickTime files (.mov, .qt and other extensions) without having to install QuickTime Player from Apple. It also supports QuickTime content that is embedded in webpages. The very user-friendly installation is fully customizable, which means that you can install only those components that you want.
The QuickTime Alternative iTunes add-on allows you to use QuickTime Alternative or QT Lite together with iTunes 8. Without this add-on iTunes will give an error about missing components.
QuickTime Alternative Lite and QT Lite do not include Media Player Classic. The text in red does not apply to QuickTime Alternative Lite and QT Lite.
