I’ve long been a user of QuickTime Alternative, as a much lighter alternative to the full Apple QuickTime. Sadly QT Alternative (and its cousin QT Lite) hasn’t been updated in over a year, whilst QuickTime has received several security and bug fixes. Updating QT Lite is a straightforward process which I will detail below. I have also built an updated installer which is available on the [intlink id=“741” type=“page”]ڈاؤن لوڈ کے صفحے[/intlink]. This installer is based on Apple QuickTime 7.7.3 (28-دسمبر -2012)
پہلا, a quick note — QT Lite and QuickTime alternative are the same thing — the only difference being that QuickTime Alternative includes Media Player Classic. Both versions are based on QuickTime 7.6.9. I would suggest avoiding QuickTime Alternative, اور اس کے بجائے, installing an up-to-date version of Media Player Classic — Home Cinema, which you can find linked from the downloads page.
The files installed by QT Lite are directly from the QuickTime installer. They can be extracted, and copied over the top of the files installed by QT Lite to update to the latest version. Below I will list the procedure for extraction and the files required for anyone that wishes to complete the update manually (نیا انسٹالر استعمال کرنے کے بجائے). Please also note that I haven’t found a way to extract the browser plugins without actually installing QuickTime — but I don’t recommend installing the browser plugin anyway. If you do want to install the browser plugin then see the section at the bottom of this article.
The easy way — my updated installer

The manual way — 4. براؤزر پلگ ان کو اپ ڈیٹ کرنا [اختیاری اقدام]
- If you do want browser plugins, and you copied them from quicktime earlier then read on
- Copy the “Plugins” folder you copied earlier
- For Firefox copy it to c:\program files\mozilla firefox and say yes to any merging/over-writing
- کروم کیلئے اسے کاپی کریں c:\program files\google\chrome and say yes to any merging/over-writing
- There are probably similar steps for other browsers, لیکن میں نے ابھی ان کی جانچ نہیں کی.
میں نے انسٹالر کیسے بنایا
- اقدامات کے مطابق تفصیل سے فائلیں نکالیں 1 and 3 above
- Extract the QTLite installer with “Universal Extractor" (a version of UE with up-to-date prerequisites can be obtained from ajuaOnline)
- انسٹال بھی کریں InnoSetup (the unicode version) — we’ll need it
- میں فائلوں کو زیادہ لکھ دیں {ایپ}\پہلے محفوظ کردہ افراد کے ساتھ کیو ٹی ایس سسٹم فولڈر
- میں فائلوں کو زیادہ لکھ دیں {ایپ}\Plugins folder with the ones saved earlier (some renaming and duplicating is required, یہ واضح ہونا چاہئے)
- Copy the files from plugins to various other locations (ان میں سے بہت سے)
- Remove the “check” part of lines 631 and 632
