Thank you, I'm now farther than where I was before, however, when I click on the trailer, a 
dialog box for mplayerplug-in pops up and its says "loading movie" but nothing else shows up, 
background is white.

Hi all, I'm trying to setup a Freebsd 5.1 machine to be able to watch quicktime trailers from 
apple's website. I installed from ports:
qtutils
libquicktime
openquicktime
However, the site tells me I'm still missing a plugin and can't view the trailer. Any help will be 
highly appreciated.

To get a plugin in your browser I recommend to use ports/mplayerplug-in. That should allow 
you to view the trailer. If you get no sound, don't worry. That's not your fault. Some new trailer 
use an audiocodec which I only got in the latest windoze qt-player. It won't even play sound on 
a Mac.
