EdSaikul Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Well, after purchasing a Macbook Pro, I find myself learning a whole new operating system but by half isn't it quick compared to Vista? Everything just feels like it works, if that sorta makes sense? Although the simple things become quite obvious once you work them out! After your advice on which codecs to install? Something that plays .avi .mpeg .xvid would be useful? Thanks if you can help.

Koffein Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 try vlc http://www.videolan.org/ or if you want to play divx in quicktime download the divxplayer wich installs the divx codec http://www.divx.com Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/52922-video-codecs-what-do-you-recommend/#findComment-377613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 You should try Perian. It's a lightweight Quicktime component that will allow the playback DivX, XviD, and several other codecs.

EdSaikul Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 Thanks for the replies and help all.... These are spyware free I assume? Or don't you get spyware on a mac?
