    As is the case with all software that works with MOV files, AE uses the QT engine to work with MOVs so the results are typically the same. The problem you’re having sounds like a codec issue. What codec is your MOV in? Media Player Classic can utilize a variety of non-standard codecs so you may have a file in a codec that QT doesn’t fully understand … there aren’t too many of those, but there are some.

    Check to be sure that you have “Use high-quality video setting when available” checked in the Quicktime Preferences:
