I was unable to play the audio in my quicktime files. This is the output from the console when running totem and loading a .mov file:
alvaro@Eleanor:~$ totem
wine/module: Win32 LoadLibrary failed to load: qtmlClient.dll, /home/alvaro/.gnome2/totem-addons/qtmlClient.dll, /usr/lib/win32/qtmlClient.dll, /usr/local/lib/win32/qtmlClient.dllI can see the movie just fine, but no audio at all.

woah, thanks for the fast reply.
Since when is this true? I was able to play quicktime moves just fine before this backport (that's totem-xine 1.0)

Those codecs were borken out of xine due to patent/copyright issues. You have always needed them to play quicktime with totem-xine.
