I guess you'll have to wait until they make a video channel.

i thought .mov was quick time?

I *think* it only supports .mjpeg...I'm sure there are a couple of threads on here that got into a bit more detail.

As far as I can tell, the compression software for the wii at the moment isn't up to much...tends to triple the size of file :S.

Ok, i got it half working. to make it play the video you first need to get quicktime pro(the method you choose to get it is up to you). once you have that, simply select the file you want and open it with quick time. now click on File->Export, once thats done, click on the Options... button and select the setting button in the video section, then finaly select the Motion JPEG A compression, and then just click ok->ok->Save and voila, no sound but you got video, i dont know what the audio compression is sappose to be on a camera, but if we can figure it out, we can put movies on
