Late Thursday, the Perian team released version 1.1 of Perian, the open-source QuickTime components effort that allows QuickTime to support and play a variety of additional formats beyond what it would normally be able to handle.

The new version, a 2.6 megabyte download, includes the following fixes and changes:
-Major performance improvements.
-TrueAudio, MP1, and DTS audio support.
-Slice-based multithreaded decoding for MPEG-1/2/H.264.
-Apple H.264 now handles AVCHD/interlaced video.
-Compatibility fixes for QuickTime 7.4 and Leopard.
-Objective-C GC compatibility.
-Fixed a crash in Toast.
-Better subtitle rendering.
-Subtitles play during MKV loading.
-Snow support.
-Miscellaneous bug fixes.

Perian is available for free and requires Mac OS X 10.4 or higher to run.

If you've tried the new version and have any feedback about it, let us know in the comments or forums.
