Quicktime for Mac? (no wait - i meant for Linux...)

<< < (2/3) > >>

Calum:
hmm, still i wouldn't put it past them to release binaries for linux/motorola and not for linux/x86...

or is there a way to get Quicktime to work with WINE?

hey! i never even thought of that! is there?

how would i go about installing the windows version of quicktime on a linux system (red hat 8) with wine already installed on it? all i have done with wine before is run programs straight off a windows partition, but can i run the quicktime installer and put it in my linux filesystem? (in /opt i suppose...) can i can i? huh? huh? huh?

Apparently it works well with codeweavers wine, but in the presence of the legend that is mplayer why would you do it?

Calum:
well not that i have made much effort but i haven't got mplayer to play quicktime videos yet, and i am unwilling to get a pay/binary only version of wine to be honest.

will try and read up on mplayer when i have a moment though..

dot.this:
Part of Apple's "Switch" strategy is aimed at Unix/Linux users. If they provided software like QT for Linux, people might be less inclined to switch.

Now why would Apple spend all that time and money developing an X11 version of QT just to help Linux users decide to NOT switch?
