I have an iPhone .mov quick time video I need to play for my wife. I
get this message from Parole. When I click on install, nothing seems
to happen.
How do I get this decoder installed?
Meanwhile, VLC will play the audio, but the video stays on the first
frame. What's with that?
Or maybe some other app is better?
For parole, you could try installing the ffmpeg from rpmfusion to get
the decoder libraries for h264 installed. It probably uses them.
.mov is h264? .mov is the old mpeg standard extension, now completely
off patent, yay! What does file say about the file? For what it's
worth, parole played both mp4 (h264) and mov files on my system.
The video is from my father-in-law's iPhone (I do not know what version)
of my 14yr old nephew playing his guitar at an old folk's home.
Installing ffmpeg did not help out parole. It is still reporting to
install the decoder. But I had mplayer and ran with that and that
worked. Here is the interesting messages from the terminal window:

**** Your system is too SLOW to play this! ****

Possible reasons, problems, workarounds:
- Most common: broken/buggy _audio_ driver
- Try -ao sdl or use the OSS emulation of ALSA.
- Experiment with different values for -autosync, 30 is a good start.
- Slow video output
- Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
- Slow CPU
- Don't try to play a big DVD/DivX on a slow CPU! Try some of the
lavdopts,
e.g. -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts lowres=1:fast:skiploopfilter=all.
- Broken file
- Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0.
- Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc)
- Try -cache 8192.
- Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file?
- Try -nocache.

I know that the mplayer from rpmfusion has h264 support built in, and
also mpg support for the original .mov.
Both vlc and mplayer use ffmpeg under the covers, so you could just try
ffplay. It's not as sophisticated as mplayer or vlc, but it usually
deals well with misconfigured videos, which is what I suspect you
have. I sometimes see videos like that, the creator forgot to set some
default that is expected, and if the player doesn't have an internal
default built in to deal with that, it fails.
If the video isn't sensitive, you could paste it somewhere, and post a
link, to see if someone else can play it.
