You can play them using Xine or Kaffeine. Just need to get the right
plug-ins for it. For *.mov files I think you need mainly the
libquickttime & the win32 plugins from the xine web site (just google
it) This are the stuff I do for many years to make Xine & Kaffeine
work flawlesly:

yum install libdca
yum install libdvbpsi
yum install libdvdcss
yum install libdvdnav
yum install libdvdplay
yum install lsdvd
yum install lame
yum install libfame
yum install libmad
yum install libmms
yum install libmpeg3-devel
yum install faad2
yum install faac
yum install imlib2
yum install gsm
yum install xvidcore
yum install libmpcdec
yum install aalib
yum install x264
yum install ffmpeg
yum install libquicktime
yum install libmodplug
yum install libcdio
yum install vcdimager
yum install xine-lib-extras-freeworld

#Finally: I downloaded "essential" from
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/design7/dload.html
unpacked inside /usr/lib and renamed win32 (/usr/lib/win32)
cp ~elandave/Download/essential-20061022.tar.bz2 /usr/lib/.
cd /usr/lib
rm -f essential-20061022.tar.bz2
mv essential-20061022/ win32
ls -lZ win32
sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync;sync

#you can fail with this :)
