    mplayer, install the Mandrake rpms and get the win32 and QT 
codecs from mplayer's d/l page http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/

Get the mplayer rpms for your mandrake version from PLF,
  http://plf.zarb.org/    The win32-codec rpm there includes the QT 
codecs. Get the mencoder rpm too while you're there.

   xine will also play QT .mov's, but mplayer has very much more 
functionality, contrast, brightness, tint, color level, and sound 
volume adjustments, on the fly while the .mov is playin if you use 
the command line version, not the GUI frontend. Also, usin 
mplayer's mencoder, you can edit, re-size, crop, etc. movie files 
or create your own. If you also install Mandrake's kmplayer rpm you 
can configure your browser to use it to play QT streams from web 
pages. At least with Konqueror. I haven't tried it with other 
browsers.
