There is a MOV plug-in at <A HREF=[http://www.doom9.net]>Doom9.net</A> under MPEG 1-2 encoders. Just open it and export AVI.
Bleh, that's what
I said to look for - a DirectShow filter.
VirtualDub doesn't have any of its transcoder filters "built in" -- it interfaces with the DirectX API. (As it should.)
Anyway: If you do use that kind of setup, be careful about what kind of codec your Quicktime file uses. I have to emphasize:
Quicktime is not a closed format. For evidence, I point you to:

At the same time, Quicktime can be used with proprietary codecs, such as Sorenson. Quicktime files encoded with such systems will not be opened by anything else other than Apple's proprietary software. (Sorenson V1 was recently open-sourced, but who the heck uses that anymore?) If, on the other hand, your Quicktime file is uncompressed or compressed using an "open" method, you'll be fine.
Of course, if all you want is the audio, all this is moot. Go read AD's guide.

If, however, you ever want to use Quicktime for anything else (for example, what it was designed for), consider this a PSA.
