I'm using a 7500 and on that, QT MPEG works fine with QT 2.5 (as does
Sparkle). But if QT 3 handles AVIs it would be jolly nice. Of course a
subsidiary question would be; which AVIs? That seems to be a moving target.
I had a couple donwloaded from the CNN site which will play fine on a
Windows box but won't load (error -50) into IE on the Mac, which will
normally handle AVIs. The problem is that IE is a damn great application to
run just to look at an AVI, and it's also pretty inflexible (won't resize
the picture).
