mplayerplug-in


net-www/mplayerplug-in
     Available versions:  2.80 2.85 3.11
     Installed:           3.11
     Homepage:            http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/
     Description:         mplayer plug-in for Mozilla


MPlayer Media Types Supported
Window Media  	wmv, avi, asf, wav and asx
QuickTime 	mov and smil
MPEG Video and Audio 	mpeg and mp3
Ogg Vorbis 	ogg
AutoDesk FLI 	fli and flc
Vivo 	vivo
Real Player 	ram and rm

is probably the best-known of these tools, but there are others;

there is a package called 'mozplugger', which supports several formats
(possibly more than mplayerplug-in), as well as the older
netscape-plugger on which it is based,; gxine creates a plugin for web
browsers (plain xine might do so as well, I'm not sure); so does
realplayer, iirc; and you can also install QuickTime itself using Wine
or Crossover Office, which will also give you a browser plugin.

HTH,
Holly

What do I need to do to be able to view a quicktime video online?

I see a couple of quicktime library packages but neithers website
mention plugin tools for Mozilla.

I'm guessing there are viewers available that employ these libs.
But need to know what combination of things I need.

Thanks for a very complete answer Holly.  Soon as Cineralla(sp?)
finished compiling and pulling in deps I'll get that one done too.
