[PyQt] Newbie question - Quicktime

[Hugo Léveillé]

Ok I tried the same code with a .wmv file under XP and it works
perfecly. So the problem is really the backend. Quicktime is not listed
in the compatibility app.

So my question now is, can we add other playing capabilities so that it
can support more movie type (quicktime in my case). If so, where can
they be found ?

Thanks!
