seems to be an mpeg-2 file for which you need to purchase a Quicktime
plug-in.

A way around is to simply rename it to .avi and MPlayer OSX (free!) will
happily play it.

Better yet, convert it to a real avi file, using VisualHub and VLC will
accept it as well.

VH, by the way, is a highly useful conversion program, shareware, alas,
25$ if I remember right.

Or just delete the powquattsi mpg, the Introclip wmv contains the same
sequence as well.

Hope to have been of some help to plagued Mac users.

Happy Holidays to all!
