Is there anything in pkgsrc that can play QuickTime reliably?
I've got a couple of .mov files (QuickTime, I think). The only software
that even looks promising for playing them is mplayer. It does the
video alright, but I can't hear the audio.
Is this one of those cases where I have to manually try a hundred
or so random -aid <n> parameters to find the audio channel? Or
does mplayer just not handle audio for QuickTime? Is there a
program that can get it *right* just by inspecting the .mov file's
headers?
I would be *perfectly* happy to convert to a more usable format,
but when I try to use ffmpeg to do the conversion, I always
get empty output files.
Any suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks in advance.
