<http://helpqt.apple.com/qthelpcr1/english/QuickTimeHelp/pgs2/qtpFmSet.htm> pages: - - - "QuickTime can import multiple formats of several types of files.

For more information about supported formats, see the QuickTime Web site." - - - There are some options that come with the QT Pro version, but the pages don't specify which (having gone to QT Pro a while back, I forget which ones come with the standard player). BTW, the above info is for the MacOS 9.x/QT 6 version... Those running OS X.whatever may need to clarify for X which formats are available under Jaguar or other versions of X.
