O.P. How to play .Mov files in WMP
I am wondering if there is a plugin for Windows Media Player, or something i can do, to get WMP to play .mov files

Does anyone know?

You can get a codec pakc but its quite hard to find. Google around for the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. If you use torrents it shouldnt be hard to find it from a well known site
The codec pack contains DivX, XviD and other codecs for windows media player :)

Just choose everything, it's not that big of files really, and it's always better to have em all

No, you can not play .mov files in Windows Media Player. If you get QuickTime Alternative it will work in Media Player Classic (a modded version of an old Windows Media Player). There is no workaround for .mov files in normal Windows Media Player.

Yeah but DivX and XViD have nothing to do with .mov files, I think it has QuickTime Alternative though. Also please refrain from advertiseing software which is illegal.
