The xanim binary that comes with redhat does not have support for certain
file types compiled into it. Don't ask me why :)
	If you want to see this type of movie, download xanim yourself,
and follow the instructions for adding support for quicktime, and then
replace the redhat binary with the one you built yourself.
	Annoying, but not too difficult.
