Hi,

  I am assuming the MOV file is a Quicktime movie, if not, excuse me.
It won't play with XMovie because it is compressed with the patented
Sorenson Vision stuff - instead, it will only play uncompressed movs.
  I personally enjoy mplayer for all my movie viewing needs - try
`whereis mplayer` for more details.

-lewiz.
