A codec being missing will not cause xine to hang; however a poorly
implemented one will. Most QuickTime-encapsulated codecs are supported on
Linux natively and well by now, however. I'd suggest either updating xine or
using a different media player - mplayer or vlc - to try the file. If they
all hang, its a bug in the underlying libavcodec.
