This software isn't available any more.

QuickTime can refer to different things:

  • A software tool for viewing and editing multimedia content such as movies and immersive panoramas
  • A file format for distributing multimedia content. QuickTime files typically have a .mov file extension. If you can't see file extensions, you may want to enable windows file extensions as you will have great difficulty editing and manipulating image files otherwise.
  • QuickTime Virtual Reality QTVR, was an extension to the QuickTime file format that embeds immersive panoramas as JPEG encoded cubic or cylindrical panoramas. This is not supported any more in current Quicktime distributions.

With Mac OS X Lion, the underlying framework, QTKit, was replaced in favor of AV Foundation and removed from the operating system altogether starting with macOS 10.15.

Development of the version for Windows was discontinued in 2016.
