linux ;) both xine and mplayer (and therefore the respective front ends, such as kaffeine and kmplayer) can play them if they were built with the right codecs. it really depends on which distribution you are using as to whether or not this works "out of the box". e.g. Linspire licenses and ships the codecs (and i've heard tell of a similar deal having been made by a certain green lizard) and gentoo allows you to emerge the codecs. if you wish to do it by hand, go to mplayerhq.hu and download the "all codecs" package; through all the dll's into /usr/lib/win32 and build mplayer or xine from source. -- Aaron J.
