Apple has updated QuickTime to re-enable standard definition playback on various external monitors in order the quell the uproar of the new unibody MacBook that comes with built-in DRM. The Quicktime 7.5.7 update fixes the problem of the Mini DisplayPort connector on new MacBooks and MacBook Pros that actually prevents people from playing tagged video content on non-compliant monitors or projectors.

Apple could come up with something interesting for the future by applying for a patent for an “automatically adjusting media display in a personal display system.” This is somewhat a head-tracking eyewear which offers the user the feeling of being in a theater. As the wearer moves his/her head, the built-in gyroscope and accelerometer in the goggles will adjust the media file crop, making the user feel as though he/she is sitting in the theater.

Sharp took the opportunity to parade its 52″ LCD TV at the recently concluded CEATEC 2008, and what makes this LCD TV different from the rest is the inclusion of a solar panel at the base which is used to absorb the sun’s rays, converting it into electricity to power your TV.
