QuickTime 7.7.8
This is a silent installer for QuickTime.
= QuickTime 7.7.7 8 (7.7778) =
Current iTunes releases don't seem to install correctly from the EXE; fortunately, unpacking it to get MSIs a'la [[iTunes]] is simple.
QuickTime requires Apple Application Support. 7.7.6 and through 7.7.7 8 ship 2.3.6, but iTunes 12.0.1 ships 3.1. If you're going to install both, they should depend on a separate package instead of both trying to install & remove it; therefore, '''this definition requires a separate Apple Application Support package. You should generally use the one provided in the [[ITunes#Full_ITunes_installation_11|iTunes]] article,''' but if you're not deploying iTunes, a package for 2.3.6 is also included here for your convenience.
To use this definition, download [http://support.apple.com/kb/DL837 QuickTime] and place it into <code>%SOFTWARE%\Apple\QuickTime-7.7.68</code>. '''In that directory''', run <code>QuickTimeInstaller.exe /extract</code> (or unpack it with an appropriate file archiver). You'll end up with three MSIs and one EXE. If you also distribute iTunes, then you only care about <code>QuickTime.msi</code>; if you don't distribute iTunes, you also need <code>AppleApplicationSupport.msi</code>.
To avoid the tedious process of looking up new ClassIDs / GUIDs each time you deploy a new QuickTime, this package is written to remove by referencing the original MSI. This means it's a good idea to keep the old MSIs around.

== Apple Application Support ==
If you're not bothering with iTunes, this untested modification of a current Apple Application Support package might work with 2.3.6 as shipped in QuickTime 7.7.68. Note that because Apple Application Support is shared between iTunes and QuickTime, this package expects its MSI in <code>%SOFTWARE%\Apple\AppleApplicationSupport-%PKG_VERSION%.msi</code>.
