nutmac Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 Since Flip4Mac unibin is still a no show.... Popwire has released WMV-9 component that lets you finally playback Windows Media 9 audio and video files within QuickTime (WMV, WMA, both without DRM). Although the program costs $50, it's a free download and both import and playback functionalities are fully functional without a license (license affords you export option). P.S. To register .WMV and .WMA files to context menu (Open With... QuickTime Player) for playback within QuickTime Player, you must run Register Extensions setup program.

Although the program costs $50, it's a free download and both import and playback functionalities are fully functional without a license (license affords you export option). P.S. You can only playback files via QuickTime's Open menu. It does not register .WMV and .WMA files to contextual menu (Open With... QuickTime Player). we posted at the same time nearly! If you want to assign wmv to open by default in quicktime you can install a prefpane called 'RCDefaultApp" it lets you assign any filetype to any program etc.. it's also unibin.

suleiman Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 people should be aware however that this will NOT allow you to stream wmv files on the internet, as no intel-compatible WM plugin is installed. One of those sad but true moments i'm afraid... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14827-popwires-wmv-codec-unibin/#findComment-95177 Share on other sites More sharing options...
