Okay.. I just got QT6 and I tried to open some of my On2 compressed movies, and the video channel didn't work anymore. Does anyone else have this problem?..

yes on2 apparently wont work with qt6 i have the same problem..

altho in the post about codecs someone said they got on2 to work in qt6..

wonder if they have a mac... happy

anyway it could be a number of things... but i think its just that the on2 codec hasnt been updated for qt6 yet.. but thats just my guess

Should we expect a new On2 version soon do ya think? Or should I try to reinstall QT5?

No problems with On2 & QT6 here. I would just make sure you have the latest On2 codec.

Did the people with problems install On2 VP3 from the Quicktime server or did you download the standalone installation from a site (ie vp3.com or Daft's site)? I think this might possibly be the problem. Now if only I could find a way to uninstall On2 from my PC. I might just move all my On2 encoded files to the Mac!

You should be able to unistall using the install programme. As for the other peoples woes, do you have the Quicktime auto update feature working? I recently installed OSX (which for me meant a totally clean install) and when I opened a movie, it flashed up with Codec not installed : on2, do you want to install (or something), I clicked yes and about two seconds later it was done and dusted.

It was very impressive, and a lot easier than downloading and installing codecs from sites (mine or otherwise)

And this was Quicktime 6 BTW. If people are still having trouble, have you installed the new Quicktime 6 player, have you checked the auto update boxes, and are you definatley using the 'live' programme, and not still messing arond with the public Beta?

Daft, I usually get Quicktime to update itself, but when I uninstalled the beta I reinstalled VP3 as the standalone installation. So now, you can't update the normal way through Quicktime (it recognises that it is installed and fully updated). I'll have a go at running the installation file and see if I can indeed uninstall VP3 through it.

And it isn't the beta, I definately don't have it on my system anymore and only have the full version. Though I would like to know if those having trouble had previously installed the beta or not.

If neither of my questions match up with the problems then it might just be the PC version, can anyone run VP3 with the PC version? If not it looks like I will be moving my VP3 encoded files to the Mac.

Well.. I think we're looking at an OS problem. I tried the auto-update, the stand-alone On2 installer, reinstalling Quicktime, and I am still getting the same results..

I have to agree here. I had no problems on my XP machine with QT5 and the VP3 codec, but as soon as I upgraded to the full version of QT6 the VP3 codec stopped working. I've checked the updates and it tells me there aren't any, and the manual installer doesn't make a difference.

If I uninstall QT6 and go back to QT5, then it works fine.

A problem with QT6 on the Windows platform it would seem.

yeah... i'd installed on2 using the qt auto update feature when i had qt5... but when i installed qt6 (it appeared to be the full version) on2 just stopped working.. i tried installing the stand alone but nothing happened still doesnt work..

it would appear that qt6 is either not in its final form for the PC or that someone at apple goofed and released it too early happy

PLEASE LISTEN CLOSELY:

I HAVE gotten the ON2 to work correctly with Quicktime 6 on the WindowsXP platform!

To do this I uninstalled Quictime 6. Reinstalled. Then, after completing the installation I opened the "Quicktime Updater" file. It then told me everything was up-to-date. Click CUSTOM at the bottom left and it will bring up a list. This will possibly include On2 as "Not Installed" after selecting all of the items in this list and clicking UPDATE, everything worked fine.

If you are unclear of a step or if you need me to trouble-shoot something, post or PM me.
