Quick question

How do I play quicktime files from Linux?

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.

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.
