[ILUG] playing quicktime movies in linux?

WMware isn't always a great solution.   The computer you want to run 
Quicktime on mightn't be powerful enough to run two OS' simultaneously.   Or 
maybe like me, the individual might not own a copy of a Microsoft OS (Not 
quite true, I think I have a DOS 6.22 diskset somewhere).

What most people here would probably be looking for is a player that runs 
natively on *nix.   Which means that the way forward is to keep beating Apple 
over the head until they give in.

Or if OS X has quicktime support try to bring it across, though not being a 
programmer, I don't know how feasible that would be.

Regards,

Ruairi
