I have recently encountered a problem opening newer mpeg files with 
Quicktime and cannot find a list like this one that isn't supposed to be 
just for developers - can anyone direct me to one for laymen that might 
solve my problem (or at least explain it)?

Here it is:

I have Quicktime 6.02 running on 9.2.2.

A friend with a pc recently emailed me a couple of attachments: one was 
appended mpeg 2 and the other mpg 1.

I could not open either although I have never had a problem in the past 
with files appended mpeg or mpg (without numbers).

Quicktime infomed me it was "because a software component needed by the 
movie could not be found", so I checked to see if I needed an update and 
decided I might as well download the new Quicktime MPEG 2 playback 
component for a whopping $19.99 ($30. Canadian).

I am still getting the same error message (!!) and still cannot open 
either of these files despite the sender saying he has no problem with 
them.

Thanks for any advice that would help me solve the problem,

Tannis
