Probably not... most quicktime movies you download off the web use the
Sorenson codec, which is proprietary and has not been released, AFAIK,
for any movie player I know of for Linux.
This doesn't mean that all quicktimes are unuseable, just those that use
the Sorenson codec. Unfortunately, most quicktimes out their use this
codec, so it's a bit problematic. :-/
