playing *.mov files (ideas?) (background image and Direct X)

[SFX Group]

Hi

Title says it all, how do i play them, they will play on my system, however how do i get them to play inside NPVR.

BACKGROUND IMAGE
How do i change the background image on any skin (i used to be able to do this with GBPVR by uploading 1 JPG file).

DIRECT X
I have NEVER got the video renderer to work unless its overlay or EVER, i have an NVidia card with all direct X and the runtime installed, any ideas on this one (no problems with other software that uses Direct X (Google earth, CAD packages are all fine).

Other than the above all seems ok, watching 1 movie on it and it worked well (client server), seems faster and slight more stable (less black screens)

I can answer the first question: When it comes to files of other types than .ts and .mpg, npvr will simply ask directshow to play the files, so it's up to you to have the nessesary codecs installed, as long as WMP can play the file, npvr should be able to.

Cinema Listings in GBPVR used .mov files for movie trailers. When I installed Quicktime Alternative it loaded the codecs necessary to play them with direct show.
