    Hi Everyone

    Just installed QuickTime 7.2 and found that all my movies running on QuickTime only have hues of green and blue. Seems like red is not showing up. Any ideas what the problem could be?

    Cheers

    Alvin

    Do you have the latest video card drivers?

    If you mean the Nvidia drivers, I've got version 156.13 dated 11 July 2007 installed.

    Ok, found the solution to this problem on the Apple Quicktime discussion forums. This worked for me:-

    Open QuickTime.
    Click Edit, select Preference, followed by QuickTime Preferences.
    Click Advanced tab and under the Video section, select "Safe mode (GDI only)".
    Click Apply and then OK.
    Restart QuickTime and test with a movie.
