OT: Video formats

[ken at flyingtoasters.net]

.mov can usually be seen with at least one of the open tools.  Granted,
the latest and greatest Quicktime codecs are a pain, but I think even
they are available somewhere.  Feel free to send me your shortest .mov,
and I'll take a stab at it.  Have you tried vlc and mplayer?
