QuickTime 7.4.1

Apple today released an update to QuickTime, to bring it up to version 7.4.1. This update "addresses security issues and improves compatibility with third-party applications".

The big question everyone is asking is: does it fix the dreaded After Effects 10 minute rendering bug? Initial testing would indicate yes.

As always, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. And definitely don't install it if you have a Final Cut Pro version lower than 6.0.2.

Update: Macworld claims that an Apple spokesperson confirmed to them that this fixes the After Effects issue.

Update 2/7/08: Adobe confirms this.
