[cite] R0GUE:I really like VLC but I've had some minor issues with it. I would advise you to install Perian (per ian.org) to play everything and anything from within the Quicktime Player and Quicklook.
Thanks, It works perfectly.
[cite] WinLinMac01:VLC Is nice too.

I really like VLC but I've had some minor issues with it. I would advise you to install Perian (per ian.org) to play everything and anything from within the Quicktime Player and Quicklook.
you could try a A52Codec Universal for sound
and the lastest divx codec for video
and quicktime will play and video you want to play
Oh, and if you don't like the Quicktime Player interface you could try NicePlayer (niceplayer.sourc eforge.net) which is basically a nicer front end gui wrapper for Quicktime.
i just installed Niceplayer
very nice way better than quicktime
[cite] WinLinMac01:VLC Is nice too.
Small tip; read the thread
I recommend Mplayer (mpla yerhq.hu/design7/dload.html).
