That is strange. Cinepak can be played by Quicktime Player, even
without the $30 upgrade to QuickTime Pro. Perhaps you have an extremely
old version of QT, anything newer than version 3 will definitely handle
Cinepak, Sorenson, etc. You can get a free upgrade to version 5 from
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/ or www.tucows.com.
The appearance on the Mac may be an issue of monitor settings for
resolution, color depth and gamma.
