Maybe it is time for RR/MC to contain an in-built media player that 'travels with it' and standalones ? ? ? This would certainly make things considerably more "seamless".
I can feel your pain when it comes to multi-media on Linux. Though, it would not be wise for a company the size of RunRev to take something like this on. Having a partner in Apple that manages QT is a huge time and money saver. It allows Apple to carry the burden of maintaining a solid multi-media offering. It is a lot cheaper for RunRev to support this than to create something on their own.
We can hope that QT will eventually be released for Linux. I have heard that such a beast exists and Apple is waiting for the right time and/or need to release it. I think we will see Rev support some other player for Linux before we see this happen. Mplayer would suit my needs just fine.
