The new QuickTime Player is fairly neat, and will do most of the things that most people will need to do. For us who need to do more complex editing, or adding of multiple tracks and so on, we can install the QuickTime Player 7. As for what Rev can play back, it's probably best to just try

Hi Colin, The only things that I know of that QTX has trouble playing is .MID and QTVR. In RevMedia I can play an old QTVR panorama, a cubic QTVR, and an MOV with a MID track in it (Rev hates just MID on its own, but is fine with a MOV that has a video track and a MID track). This all
