Quicktime Trailers
Hi all, I'm trying to setup a Freebsd 5.1 machine to be able to watch quicktime trailers from apple's website. I installed from ports: qtutils libquicktime openquicktime However, the site tells me I'm still missing a plugin and can't view the trailer. Any help will be highly appreciated.

To get a plugin in your browser I recommend to use ports/mplayerplug-in. That should allow you to view the trailer. If you get no sound, don't worry. That's not your fault. Some new trailer use an audiocodec which I only got in the latest windoze qt-player. It won't even play sound on a Mac.

Re: Quicktime Trailers
The sound codec is probably the same used for the apple music store, mpeg 4 audio. The big changes in the recent windows release was the sound codec already present on mac systems for iTunes 4. If the openquicktime software doesn't have an apple style implementation of mpeg 4, you will be out of luck for most of those trailers.

Re: Quicktime Trailers
Thank you, I'm now farther than where I was before, however, when I click on the trailer, a dialog box for mplayerplug-in pops up and its says loading movie but nothing else shows up, background is white.

Re: Quicktime Trailers
Well if the plug in is not working, which I have seen happen occasionally. You could try pointing mplayer directly at the files, from the command line.
