my problem isn't playing quicktime files, it's that MozillaFirebird is seemingly checking the library version and crapping out due to an inappropriate version number.
has anyone seen something like this before?
thanks, -chris

just emerge it, and firebird uses it, just remember to configure it in /etc/mplayerplug-in.conf (if i remember right) :)

You may want to check out mplayerplug-in. It's a bit odly named, but it will run as the video player for all the mozilla derived browsers, using the mplayer drivers. Not sure if it automagically will work with firebird, you may need to copy the files from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins to /usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/plugins (check what is loaded with 'about:plugins').

my question actually stems from mozilla-firebird. At startup, it apparently checks libquicktime version and intermittently generates an error about the version being >5 and dies.
Portage has 3 quicktime related packages: quicktime4linux, libquicktime, and openquicktime. The latter two I know for sure provide libquicktime.so (.a); but neither solves my little problem with mozilla-firebird. The most disturbing issue to me is the intermittency of the problem. I had the same problem a couple months ago, got discouraged, unmerged mozilla-firebird, and then re-emerged a couple weeks ago and have been using it since without a hitch until this morning.
any thoughts?

--just emerge the mplayer package, it gives you a really good working quicktime, it is much faster than quicktime pro under windows :-)

which quicktime package in portage should I use? Is there even a difference from a user perspective?
