Presently I have to save it and play with vlc which works perfectly. Something called "Parole" is all that is offered and I have never succeeded in playing anything using it, considering just removing it. Google describes methods for setting the default but they don't seem applicable to XFCE and F-17/64.If you start the file manager, "Thunar", and then right click on the X.mov file pick "Open with" and then "Open with other Application" you should be able to choose vlc and that choice should stick for all .mov files.
Perhaps it should "stick" but it does not. I can view it that way but I am still offered only Parole with no "Other" option when I attempt to view the video in Thunderbird mail. Do you know of a file that can be changed manually?
