-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok. I did try playing movs about a year and a half ago or so, and they didn't work for me back then. I don't have those files anymore, so can't test now. Also, I was under the impression that .mov files were quicktime files, I didn't know they could be a container format like .avi is for example.
