The best alternative to Quicktime I have found is ... Quicktime.. It can be made to run under Linux using the codeweavers crossover plugin available from www.codeweavers.com. Crossover is a wine application and enables you to run native windows plugins including Microsoft Powerpoint/Word/Excel viewers. Installation is a real breeze and it works either standalone or as an embedded plug in in Netscape, konqueror, Opera, Galeon and Mozilla.
The downside? Well its not free. The crossover plugin will cost you $29 (but that money does help to support the Wine development) You can use it without paying, but every 30 seconds or so a window pops up begging for money. (Doesn't stop me using it that way though) HTH Derek On Tuesday 04 December 2001 02:38, you wrote: > Guys, > > what's the best alternative to QuickTime ?
