his need for a QuickTime rev to span several different generations of apps, hardware and system software sounded like a couple of the other issues that seem to have have cropped up with regularity.

i just lost it, so i'll lay it out sorta the way it happened and maybe we can figure out if this kinda thing (for some reason a turn of phrase keeps popping into mind: maniacal convolutions of the data's graphical representation) would have some merit.

whatever, there's a parallel thread on fritter that a couple of interesting links popped up on:

i don't remember QuickTime 1.6.2, maybe that one will work or were there even later rev's between 1.5 and 2.0?

back with one further thought: might old AOL installer disks or those that came with other applications, peripherals or BBS/WWW installers be a source for Quicktime variants with useful patches? (undocumented or little known)

a listing of all the trans-point upgrade features for crucial feature sets like QuickTime, Networking Protocols, Display Driver Features and sillier stuff like desktops and appearances might be really great content and it'd make a gorgeous web page if laid out in a parallel-bar graphed time line with crap like CPU generation underlays and I/O architecture overlays and graphics of the macs and GUI's as they developed to make it interactive and very rich in information depth and visual impact. the extra charts would even act as a table of contents and point out some of the interesting interrelationships in the data if they faded in and out as the page was viewed online.

dunno, whatcha think, gang?

I use QuickTime 1.6.2 on one of the two copies of OS 8.1 that are running on separate partitions of my Quadra 840av's main drive (the other has 4.x). The only reason I use it because it's the newest version that works with the SuperMac SipgotPower AV card, so I have to boot from that OS in order to capture and output video.

What we need is he/she who will implement. If we all send details, say I have quicktime version 1.0.1998/z*t beta alphanumeric(not John Merrick who was the alphabet, no sorry the elephant man).

Lost the thread now,

& then I post to nominated person ala "I run Quicktime version(just fill this bit in yourselves) On Mac os 8.1 running on my Quadra 840av.

Then nominated person could put data into a table form and post the results, updating every so often. Posting graphically would be great, loadsa pie charts & bar graphs.

Gee I really miss doing Geography.

I used it with Gemulator to help me clear out my windows drive. there might be a 68kmac version, I might just go google for it.

Anyway, I've found that old demo disks, games and driver install disks are pretty good for old versions of extensions, a list would be a good idea.
