Which software I should install to view video file AVI format on my Imac?

Which software I should install to view video file AVI format on my Imac?

It's hard to say. AVI doesn't exactly describe how the video was encoded. AVI is a package that contains the video content.
However, VLC can play just about anything. That's the first thing I'd try.

  • Unable to view video files in browser :[

    Does anyone know why Safari is unable to view video files in the browser ??? I used to be able to view .mpg video files right in the browser and when viewing .wmv files Safari would open up Windows Media Player which would then play the file. I really dug that feature. Now when clicking on a .mpg video file, Safari simply downloads the file to my HD and that's it. Is there an easy fix for this issue ??? Hello !!! Anybody ???

    Tell the QuickTime plug-in to play the file inside a browser window.
    Open System Preferences/QuickTime and click the Advanced tab. Click the MIME Settings button and then put a check mark in MPEG media.
    Quit and relaunch your browser for these changes to take effect.

  • How can clients view video file that I upload to my Creative Cloud area?

    How can clients view video files that I upload to my Creative Cloud area?  Is there a special password that they have to use to gain access?
    Thanks for any guidance.

    As a video professional, i agree and am VERY disappointed with this policy.  I attended CC presentations at various conventions, film festivals and meetups for a year-and-a-half before I made the leap to CC, and no one EVER mentioned a restriction to transferring video files.
    Whether it's to save storage space or not, that's how it APPEARS to the end user.  Anybody who knows ANYthing about how video pirates commit their crime (which it most-certainly is), knows that there are plenty of FREE, untraceable (or nearly-anonymous) resources to carry it out.  The need for anyone to pay $30 or more per-month to do it with an acct that has their info attached to it is ludicrous!  If anything it's CONTRIBUTING to piracy to encourage creatives to transfer their material to collaborative parties using a less-secure, more heavily-trafficked third-party service than the one they're paying for exclusive use for.
    Adobe's policy makers need to review this restriction and remove it or provide ANOTHER reason why it exists because this one doesn't fly.  And if it continues, make sure a disclaimer gets inserted in CC pitch presentations because likely half of the attendees are working with video.

    To connect both iMacs, you need a FireWire 400 to 800 adapter, and a FireWire 400 cable, so you will be able to connect both Macs

  • LR4 doesn't import video files .avi and cannot playback

    Hello,
    I have a big issue with my brand new Lightroom 4.
    I've been working on my updated catalog (from LR3) very well, since I tried to import fotos and videos from my second camera (olympus E-PL1).
    This "old" catalog contains RAW files (NEF and ORF), Jpeg and Video files (.avi).
    In LR3 I had no problems in importing video file and in playing the back with the external player.
    Now in LR4 is a real disaster!
    I cannot even import .avi files properly.
    LR is importing fotos but is giving a failure message on most of the video (avi) file.
    Sometimes it imports just few videos and sometimes none of them.
    I've tried to import them in differnt way: from camera directly, from a card reader, from an external drive and even from the c: hard drive. i've tried to move, and to add them in catalog. NO WAY!
    I've also tried to clean the video cache: no changes. To disable GL accelerator: no results. I have no further idea.
    I can play these video files in all applications, from WMP to Quicktime. I have also Vlan installed.
    Furthermore, while trying to import or playback videos. LR4 is slowing up in a very strange way. And sometime is crashing the last imported session (files not foud)
    I've tried to reinstall it, but I didn't see any different result.
    I've searched everywhere in the web for a possible solution, but I didn't find anything.
    Avi file I'm talking about are coming from a olympus camera E-PL1, they are in 720p.
    Please help me, beacuse I am very disappointed wih thios new video feature.
    Thank you in advance!
    Marco

    Yes, I did and I got a strange outcome.
    I checked Quicktime, and I reinstalled it.
    I restarted the PC.
    When LR4 opens, the processes
    dynamiclinkmanager.exe
    dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe
    Adobe QT32 Server.exe.
    are not working.
    After I opened the import dialog these services started.
    For the first time after restarting the PC; I could import a small video and I could playback it without problems.
    The second try of importing more videos (4 small ones), went well, but at the playback moment, everything freezed again.
    I tried to restart lightroom and to kill the processes listed above, but I had no luck.
    Only restarting the PC I could (and not always) importing the videos. The playback did work just few times.
    If the first task, after restarting the PC and Lightroom is importing (without waiting the previews of the importing box) generally there is no problem.
    If I work with my catalog, which contains videos as well, then the importing dialog (for videos) is not working.
    The playback feature seems to be a matter of luck, 90% ot times is not working well.
    I run a Windows 7 64 bit machine.
    A similar problem was reported as a bug in this post, and if so I wonder why there are not many other users reporting the same problems.

    I really hope I can solve it, without waiting for a bug fix.

  • I have a video in .avi format, what format do I need to convert to, to play on my DVD recorder, please can anyone help?

    I have a video in .avi format, but what format do I need to convert to, to play on my DVD recorder, please can anyone help?

    tylerfrombalantine's post had zero grammar in it, so it's not clear what he's saying. I bought a DVD recorder and the instruction manual lists all the disc formats it can play. Check your DVD recorder manual to see what works with it, then burn a DVD that matches. It should be fine to burn just a standard DVD, since of course any DVD player can play that.
    Depending on the program you use, you may not have to convert anything manually. The program might convert your current video format to DVD on fly as it burns the disc.
