Play quicktime streams in chrome?
I am running 64 bit archlinux and use the chrome browser from AUR (and up to date). I have noticed that pages containing quicktime video in web pages that I have tried to view show a jigsaw piece icon and the video does not play. I guess this is due to the changes to disallow npapi plugins last year. Does anyone know how to work around this so that quicktime movies can be played in chrome?

I can only suggest picking a different browser - maybe chromium would work - or ditching websites that use quicktime.
I think the 32-bit chrome on Windows can use QT plugin.

Re: Play quicktime streams in chrome?
Thanks Karol. I do also have Firefox though it would still be nice to do it in Chrome. (Yes I was aware of the 32 bit Windows plugin but I'd prefer to do it in arch!).
