    Any tips on watching quicktime that doesn't infect your computer with apples garbage? I'm not familiar with .mov files, but it seems I can't just download the file directly and play it with my menagerie of players capable of playing m4v's. Which is frustrating. .mov is acting like some kind of meta-file to point quicktime in the right direction. The only string in the file worth noting is the name of the actual video file with the .m4v extension. Maybe it's storing an IP address? Honestly I'd rather not go through all of this, if he had used a modern standard I would of being able to scrub through the file locally.

      Just install the totem-mozilla package. Should provide you with /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libtotem-narrowspace-plugin.so Or if you'd rather watch outside the browser, see instructions above.

  curl -s http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php | grep -Eo "http.\.mov" | mplayer -playlist - sadly does not work because they are not encoded well. So just use the following line to get the URLs and download them by hand. Substitute the page URL as needed. curl -s http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php | grep -Eo "http.\.mov"

    It seems that the .mov files are just references to .m4v files. This will fetch those: curl -s http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php http://fabiensanglard.net/duke3d/build_engine_internals.php | grep -Eo "http.*\.mov" |sed -e 's/\.mov/-desktop.m4v/' | xargs -n1 curl -O
