I have managed to get mrsid files to open in Qgis1.5 here is what I did: 1. install qgis 1.4 Encaladus from here http://linfiniti.com/downloads/QGIS-1.4.0-1-No-GrassSetup.exe
2. use the osgeo4w installer and install the following libraries: gdal-mrsid, gdal 16-mrsid, gdal-ecw, gdal 16-ecw and gdal17 3. copy the following dlls - NSCEcw.dl, NCScnet.dll, NCSutil.dll from the installation path of QGIS1.4 (c:\Program Files\Quantum GIS Enceladus\bin 4. paste these dlls into the bin directory of your osgeo4w installation. You should then be able to open mrsid files. Note: this seems not to work with the nightly builds of Qgis.
