Divx / Xvid for Quicktime?

Any updates on Divx or xvid for Quicktime? Universal of course (for MacBook/intel mac).
Seperate from Quicktime, I see Divx6 was released, but that costs $ and I am not clear if it is Universal.
Of course I will do my own research, but I just thought I would throw out this post real quick to see if anybody has kept up to date.
thanks

Instead of waiting for the elusive Flip4Mac UB components (which have not even reached private beta testing yet), why not try this:
Download the free Popwire WMV9 import/export components and rock out playing WMV files natively in Quicktime on your MBP. Works like a champ.
Now buy me a beer.
Here's the link:
http://www.popwire.com/downloadtrial.php?productsid=7
Now that's two bottles of beer.
FYI: The trial is for the "groovy add-on's," so just download the package and let those expire; the components you need for native QT playability are free and don't expire.
That's three.

  • How to COMPRESS to MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format for MAXIMUM YOUTUBE quality?

    I'm sick of slaving away here on fcp to then upload stuff to Youtube and have it look like ***.
    YouTube suggests uploading as MEG4 (Divx,Xvid) format.
    Is there a simple setting for that format within Compressor 2? What about QT player (I don't have pro, only QT v7.2)
    Any thoughts?

    The consistently best looking stuff I've uploaded to YouTube has been from Compressor preset H.264 LAN.
    I had tried the compress-to-flv route and that worked great, but then YouTube changed its format, so it was back to H.264 LAN...

  • Xvid on quicktime for windows

    Has anyone figured out how to use xvid on quicktime for windows? I'm running windows 7, both 32 and 64 bit.
    It seems crazy that it wont work as almost all downloaded films use the xvid codec.
    I'd love to be able to get some stuff on my ipod, and quicktimes/itunes seem the best way

    Good question ... the xvid people say they are working on their QuickTime integration:
    +*I work on Windows and want to use Xvid in Quicktime – is there a plugin available?*+
    +There’s a Xvid quicktime plugin available but it’s been created for Mac and is not well maintained at the moment. We’re currently working on improved Quicktime support, which will become part of the Xvid core code base.+
    http://www.xvid.org/FAQ.14.0.html
    ... but I'm afraid it's a bit of a "Watch this space" situation still for xvid. They do have a Windows codec available on their site, but I think that's the one best suited to WMP.

  • Quicktime divx/xvid Component

    I recently purchased QT7 Pro for Windows so I could encode in H.264 faster due to it taking quite long on my 1.33 G4. However, after I bought it I found I could not view divx/xvid encoded files. I thought no problem, I'll just do what I did on the Powerbook and download the component. Yet, I went searching for one and I could not find one. I am disappointed because many of my files are encoded in this and I want to re encode them so I can stream them using DSS. Is there anyway to view divx/xvid files in QT7 Pro on Windows? Could I install the divx/xvid codecs and copy over some DLL's or some other file for decoding purposes? Thanks for any help.

    Why has Apple done absolutely nothing to correct the Safari crashing/hanging problem? I have always loved my Mac computers. We have 3 in my home now, but if they continue to do nothing to resolve this problem, I may jump ship. If they are release something so lousy, they might as well work for Dell instead of ruining Apple's good name.
    I--we shouldn't have to keep deleting files and such weeks after they release such shoddy software. Their is a reason we mac addicts pay more for Mac products. We think they are superior to other computers, but they are going to quickly go the way of the U.S car makers if this continues.
    I'm sure this will be deleted immediately. Shouldn't they be focusing on correcting the software problems, rather than silencing those who complain, and having the buyer of their product putting bandaids on their browser?

  • IMovie to MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid)

    What is the best way to convert iMovie to MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format??
    To answer this question helps if you are familiar with YouTube. I have uploaded to youtube all sort of formats form Quicktime but the video is compressed by youtube and therefore the quality deteriorates. Youtube suggests to "specifically" the files extensions I am mentioning. The following is from their website:
    We [Youtube] specifically recommend the MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format.
    Any help?
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    the QTengine includes a mpeg4 en-/decoder...
    but for the specifications of the the mentioned formats, you have to buy plug-ins at
    www.3vix.com or www.divx.com plug-ins.
    or, you use an open source encoder plug-in, as the Xvid Codec
    or, you use 3rd party encoders as ffmpeg
    there are more tools claiming to generate Xvid codecs, as Mencoder, D_Vision, etc, but no hands-on experiences here...
    helpful?

  • Extended video codec support on iPhone (DivX, XviD, etc)

    When will the Apple add support for more widely used video codecs? E.g.
    DivX
    XviD
    WMV
    I know, I know H264 is a pretty darn good codec, but I do have quite a few flics in DivX and other formats and I don't wanna hassle with converting them.
    The lack of video and audio (flac, ogg, wma) codec support is really a turn down!!

    Divx and wmv are proprietary codecs.
    Apple supports and uses open industry standards-such as
    mpeg4/h.264.

  • Is there any codec for QuickTime Player ?

    Is there any codec for QuickTime Player ?

    Do you mean are there other codecs you can install and play in QT, yes there is, just this and it will take care of them all just about.
    http://perian.org/
    If you don't have Flash, install it here
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Others are Silverlight (free) and Flip4Mac (payware) for protected Windows media files.
    You can also install the free VLC player, it plays a lot too.
    DivX, I don't know about, VLC likely can play that.
    There is also RealPlayer, but I think that's dropped off the face of the planet

  • Trying to create Divx/Xvid MPEG-4

    Have created a little video promoting our charity in Premiere Pro CS3 and am trying to get it onto a Digial Photo Frame to play when we do displays.
    My problem is getting the video into a file format the DPF will accept. The rather limited instructions say it supports
    "AVI (M-JPEG/MPEG-4/DIVX/XVID/), MPEG-1@VGA" and later it says
    "DivX/Xvid MPEG-4 @640x480/2000kbps"
    Am very much a beginner and have tried various export settings but the DPF doesn't recognise any of them. To be honest I'm rather faffing in the dark as I don't really know what the above means.
    Would be very grateful to be pointed in the right direction.
    Many thanks
    (XP Pro windows)

    Thanks Ann.
    For anyone else reading this, instructions how to use divx in premiere are at http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/codec/guides/premiere.php
    Still doesn't actually work on my digital picture frame, but having got this far I've gone back to the suppliers to see if they can help.

  • DDTS-100 and Divx/Xvid files

    Does the DDTS-100 have problems with DivX/Xvid files that are encoded with AC3?
    Power DVD will pick up a true DD signal for a DVD, but if i convert to avi (divx) with the ac3 sound, it only uses Pro Logic II/Neo6. There isn't even the option in Power DVD to use spdif when playing an ac3 divx file.
    Who here has the DDTS-100 and can play AC3 divx files fine with TRUE DOLBY DIGITAL?
    Cheers.

    Well this went down like a lead balloon.
    If anyone else finds this, a solution is to convert the divx file to dvd vob files. The DDTS-100 will pick up the true digital signal if they are vob files, converted from divx with AC3 sound.
    I use 'VSO divxtodvd', you can google a link.

  • New Creative Zen - DivX / XviD resoluti

    Hey all,
    I was just wondering what resolutions of divx / xvid are supported by the new creative Zen. I've got my eye on the 6gb model which looks absolutely ideal, however a key point for me is that i really do not want to be transcoing the movies i have on my computer due to the time and additional storage space which all this would require.
    I know the zen vision m / w both handle reasonably high resolutions, up to VGA ish (640x480) on the same size screen (320x240 i think), but is this going to be the same for the new Zen?
    Thanks for any information,
    CJ

    i believe the codecs specs is the same as zen vision m.

  • Can VOB files DiVX / Xvid run on FCP

    Hi,
    I am totally unaware of FCP. I want to ask that can FCP accept VOB and Xvid/DivX files for direct editing and direct export ?
    Thanks

    No. You'd have to transcode them to a format which is supported. All common acquisition formats are supported (i.e, DV, HDV, DVCPROHD, etc..) but delivery formats are not directly supported by any pro editing software I know of.

  • Itunes is asking for Quicktime Version 7.5.5. or higher before opening

    Hi there,
    recently I had to reinstall my complete software by using the installation disc that came with my macbook. After reinstalling I updated my itunes-Version to 5.2.2. Afterwards, by clicking on the itunes-Logo in the dock in order to start itunes, I have received the failure notice "Itunes needs quicktime player version 7.5.5. or higher"
    I have checked my current quicktime version, it says it is version no. 7.7. (1680.25) in greater letters and below written in smaller letters there's a different version no. saying 7.4.1. (14).
    That leaves me with the question, how to find out which quicktime version is correct. And, if no. 7.7. is correct, what can I do about itunes to be able to open the programm again? Thanks in advance for any advice, you can give me.

    Run System Profiler.  Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."
    Check under both Applications and Frameworks for Quicktime.  Applications are the actual Player application itself.  I believe Frameworks is the underlying system software support.  If you see something different there it might be that about which iTunes is complaining.  On my computer both say the same, but I'm not having the issue.
    I'm guessing here but if you re-installed the system using Archive and Install,  your applications were left intact and that's why your Player is 7.7, but all your system software (includingQT framework) was replaced with earlier versions which may be why the you're seeing different versions.  iTunes doesn't need the Player, but it does need the underlying QT software.

    Hello everybody. I am trying to reinstall my Quicktime 7 Pro after having my MacBook OSX 10.5.8 cleaned out following a hacking. I have Quicktime player and I reregistered with the purchased registration code for Quicktime 7 pro. It seems to be successfully registered with "Quicktime 7 Pro" appearing under the inserted registration code but it is not showing in Applications folder and I do not know how to access it or what to do. Thanks for reading this. I hope you can help me. Aidan from Dublin, Ireland.

  • Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions
