quicktime codecs are windows codecs too :)
but windows mediaplayer and quicktime palyer
codecs are of course very different.

heh? installed? heh?

crossover is just an extended closedsource wine version
(full windows emulator), which runs the windows quicktime
player program. it doesn't install codecs for linux and so...
