64bit Linux, AFAICT, does not yet play .mov files

They play fine here.

Are you able to drag a link from this page:
<http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/district9/> and play it on
mplayer?

No. Those are reference files (only a few kB big), not the real *.mov
files.

`mplayer -playlist /path/to/reference-file.mov` might be worth a go.

Apple's server doesn't allow access to the actual movies (if you try to open the URL to the real *.mov file, you get redirected to some movie ads page). I guess it checks for the QuickTime player's user agent.

So I can't try to test if those *.mov files play OK here since I can't even get to them.
