Quick question
How do I play quicktime files from Linux?
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

Re: Quick question
The best way, though it costs money, is with CodeWeavers' Crossover. It's a specialized, and thus easy-to-setup and working, version of Wine which allows you to use Windows plugins, including Quicktime. I used the demo for a while, pretty good stuff! As soon as I get some cash, I'm going to buy the real version. CodeWeavers contributes very heavily to the Wine project, so the money's going to good places.

Re: Quick question
Damn. I was asking for a friend of mine, who refuses to put anything that isn't freeware on his Linux box.

Re: Quick question
If your friend wants Sorensen (sp?) Quicktime, that's his only option.
