iTunes 7 Video Issue

I've been having video problems since the upgrade to 7.0. Green and white bars or other video garbage when playing video but audio was fine.
I uninstall and reinstalled ITunes and Quicktime with no luck.

But then I just stumbled upon a setting that cleared things up for me. Here's what I did: From Windows Desktop goto - Start | Control Panel |Quicktime | Advanced - then under the 'video' section I selected Safe mode (GDI only) instead of DirectX and applied.
I re-selected DirectX and only selected 'Enable Direct Draw Acceleration' under that and the video is now working fine in iTunes.
