Mov is Quicktime correct?
Quicktime has a number of formats, more then anything else it is a codec
for embedding some other codec. Xine can play Sorenson, which was the
old quicktime codec of choice. However nowadays the prefered codec is
Sorenson3, which as of yet has not been reverse engineered.
You may have some luck installing the appropriate dlls into
/usr/lib/win32 although I'm not so sure that you can do that for
Sorenson3 yet.

Read the Xine website for more.
