Colin,

I doubt you'll get any sound from the .MOVs
regardless, if they are encoded via Sorenson 3, or
whatever may exist that is newer. That is to say,
Quicktime files of the last few years. As previously
mentioned, and discussed in the past on the WV forum,
this is due to a proprietary audio codec that WV does
not support.

I have no info about the WV plugin that is at all
recent, but as of the last time I followed this (well
over a year ago) it was not getting many reports of
success.

I don't know whether ODIN and the Wincodecs have any
specific impact on the above. If anyone has
dramatically different and better results, I'd love to
hear about it.

You might want to get onto the WV forum (at the .RU
site, but perhaps they are represented on Yahoo Groups
by now ?), and the OS/2 multimedia newsgroup.
