Hi all,

once I installed Zephyroth leopard (rev2), I downloaded vlc. But when I select a video file (any codecs, format...), VLC disappears.
Do you know how I could find out what is the problem please? can you , all, tell me which video player, you use ?

Thanks,

SpY974

I really like VLC but I've had some minor issues with it. I would advise you to install Perian 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 which is basically a nicer front end gui wrapper for Quicktime.
