old quicktime movie

Am trying to open a quicktime movie (.mov) that I generated with AC version 9 in 2004. If I try to just open it, I get "error 108-unknow error". If I click play, I get a black screen in quicktime player with nothing showing.

Anybody know how to open these older movies from ArchiCad? I have lots of them and want to be able to use them.

Thanks Tom

Try using VLC (video lan client) to see if they play correctly if they do then you can use Handbreak to re-encode them to a more recent format.

Free download of the program, and it does work with the old Quicktime .mov file. Thanks for the heads up.
