Some new QT features

I was poking around the new Quicktime and found a couple of features worth mentioning. (I don't know how many of these are QT 7.4)

1) Use high quality video setting when available. Do you know how many calls I get from people who export DV out of FCP and ask "Why does it look bad?"

2) Show timecodes when available - wow, I can see mucho use for this. I don't know if it's possible to embed that from an FCP timeline, but boy, it'd be nice not to have to render that (feel free to chime in.)

3) Show content guide automatically. Ever start up QT and have it stall as it pulls down that damn content guide you've never used? Yeah, turn that crap off here.

4) Enable Final Cut Color Compatibility. I can see that I'm going to have to eventually write up a guide about this. But yeah, that's why your colors shift.

Better QT settings
