Yes. (:


I thought you were implying that you had QT4, and it choked. This is good 

news.


I don't have D7 installed on this machine, but a firm I work closely with 

does, and haven't reported anything, QT4 *should* have 

clean-backwards-compatiblity, but it is in Beta. That said, the Beta team 

for QT4 is huge, and most are graphics pros. I'd say with reasonable 

certainty you shouldn't have much of a problem.


As far as the pain of reinstalling, just backup your QT3 extents and 

plugins to a separate folder, and if QT4 gives you trouble, just drag 

them back in in place of the QT4 stuff.


It does not replace your QT3 folder and player-components, only your 

extents.


Switching back is less than a minute and a reboot.
