You've got it backwards. MPEG4 and H.264 play in standard QT 7, but
MPEG 1 and 2 are part of a $20 MPEG playback upgrade, that isn't
even part of Pro, AFAIK....

Hi Caleb,
Thank you for your input on this query. I was able to convert/
transcode the file into MPEG4 and then open it up in Quicktime and in
iMovie.
However, the quality is not great....lots of tiny blocks and a lot
of video/audio "stuttering" that was not present when I played the
original mpeg video file in VLC.
If I purchase this upgrade, would it allow me to import the original
video into iMovie without the loss of video quality that I described
above ? i.e. with the MPEG-2 Playback Component upgrade, will I be
able to open the original file directly into Quicktime or import into
iMovie and get close to the original quality of video (which was very
clean/sharp) ?
If so, I'll go ahead and buy it.
Amber
