Real now makes their RealProducer in a Linux version:

I haven't used this, but I have enjoyed a previous linux version of
RealPlayer (not the "One")... for internet radio stations and other
common .rm files.

As far a quicktime goes, there are a number of tools that will work with
it EXCEPT for the bastard Sorenson codec, which is the newest and AFAIK
only the Crossover plugin will work for those.  My digicam takes
15-second .MOV's which I can play (or edit, with Broadcast 2000).
I use a variety of software, which plays a lot of new codecs, thanks to
clever coders who make use windows DLL's from linux!!!
Try the latest versions of xine, mplayer, and even the avifile package.
If you don't know where to look, start with google and freshmeat.
There are also some sites dedicated to video on linux, like:
http://linuxtv.org/  - mostly about digital satellite video
http://heroinewarrior.com/ - home of Xmovie and Broadcast2000
http://www.exploits.org/v4l/  - very cool

BTW, broadcast can still be found somewhere on the net,
but don't ask me, it's dark out there  : )
