New MPlayer!
voidmain:
It's the best. It plays more formats than any other player that I know of with the exception of the very latest Sorensen format (it plays the earlier ones fine). The only movies I have seen that used that new format were the Movie Trailers that were on Apple's web site. But I am sure there are more. There are very few Sorensen v3 clips out there from my experience. You have to have the win32 codec package installed in /usr/lib/win32 though (the codecs are on the MPlayer web site right next to the MPlayer download.

Yeah. I was looking at the site, and I am thinking to myself, people are giving this almost rave reviews. It purports to support a huge number of codecs, so why would it not have support for Quicktime, after all it supports all the major formats.
So I think I will blame a moment of stupidity, I usually spot things like this straight off. I will see tonight, and then I can show the G/F the video trailer she wants to see, she is wavering on the conversion I have forced her through to Linux. Must prove point.
I have been meaning to get this program installed for a while, after your recommendation of Ogle for DVDs I was well impressed I can tell you.
voidmain:
I mentioned that the Movie trailers might be v3 Sorensen, if so, you'll still be out of luck. Do you have a link to one that you might want to view so I can try it?

This is the UK version of the site, the US version offers asf ***spit***, which if I am not mistaken is basically a WiMP format.

I don't think it will be a problem.

Holy shit, thank you. I had not seen those.
