Avid and QuickTime 4, cannot coexist?

[techman2]

Had been using MSP6 on my Marvel G400 and wanted to drop back to Avid. It won't load, stating that it will not work with QT4. Does anyone have a way for me to use both programs?

TIA

Has anyone got Avid installed and Quicktime 4. It ships with 3, but MSP 6 installed 4. Avid says it will not work with 4...

The Avid site says no, but someone has to have found a way around this. right? =)

I use AVID and I think I remember last Summer I upgraded to QT4 and had some problems. Don't remember if AVID wouldn't work but QT4 sure fouled up some other things on my system. It reassociated all my files and I couldn't play AVI's at all. Suggestion is if you don't have to have QT4, uninstall it and drop back to 3.0.

I have had a lot of problems with the quicktime stuff hosing systems all the way back to version 2. =( It sure gets used a lot for somthing that really seems to be frustrating. I think it is a plot that Apple uses to get back at us. =)

The Avid Cinema Site says: "Supports Quicktime 3.02 only at this time". This sounds for me, that there will come a Support for Quicktime 4. But when? Most of the other Avidcinema Products already support Quicktime 4. So maybe we all should write Mails to Avid to make a support for Quicktime 4 with the Marvel Version finally, too.
