Has anyone figured out how to play QuickTime on their Xoom? I'm trying to do an online course and only need to play about 5 sec voice clips (no video). I tried in regular browser and it can't find a player install to play it. Also tried skyfire browser and a play button shows up but wont play it either.
Any suggestions?

quicktime is a wrapper, and the video it wraps can be in several formats so there is no easy answer. I had .mov files that i needed to play and I use moboplayer. Install that and give it a try. By default the Xoom doesnt come with many codecs and supported file types...

Thanks. I downloaded moboplayer and the course said it couldn't find compatible player on my xoom. i dont know if it is because the clip is voice only. I sent an email to the developer for the dolphin browser asking if they would make an add-on for a QuickTime player. Maybe that would help.
Too bad I can't put extensions on the browser like we can on chrome, then we could optimize our browser with what we need.
