I seem to recall that there are some xv problems (basically:
doesn't work) on os x

well I tried pdp_qt~ also here and it also plays _my_ testfile
for which qtinfo reports:
x at combat:~$ qtinfo download/jitter/jitterdocwin/media/bball.mov
File download/jitter/jitterdocwin/media/bball.mov:
1 audio tracks.
1 channels, 16 bits, sample rate 22050, length 99262 samples, compressor twos.
supported.
1 video tracks.
320x240, depth 24, rate 15.000000, length 68 frames, compressor jpeg.
supported.
basically I'd stick to gem on os x (much better supported AFAICS) if you
really want to go pdp/pidip consider linux - maybe mr. clepper or tigital
can enlighten you about qt codec issues on your platform ...
