avi - is a container not a format in and of itself.
VLC will do the job on opening and playing these just fine.

Playing AVI and DivX files

I've recently bought a Mac Book and am struggling to play AVI and DivX files. What seemed so easy on my old PC now seems impossible on my Mac.
I've looked at the past forums and tried a few past suggestions, but nothing works. I've tried downloading DivX for Mac with all the codecs, VLC Media Player, Perian and I've even tried coverting through DivX Doctor II.
What am I doing wrong?

I don't think this fixes your problem but it at least keeps the thread going until someone with the answer posts. The one thing you didn't mention was fip4mac. I don't know it those others cover what it does or not. If you have downloaded the file you can control click on the file and select get info. When that comes us select open with. Change what ever that is to QuickTime. Sometimes that lets you view some files. I feel your pain, the change over takes a little time. Hang in there mate, it will be worth it.

My MacBook cannot play avi and rmvb format movies

My MacBook cannot play avi nor rmvb format movies, when i checked up in apple.com, i found a supporting software called XiVD( cannot remember the spelling), after following the instructions of it, i can watch movies in avi, but not rmvb, and the movie wasn't played with sound, can anyone help?

rmvb is a Real Media file (Real Media Variable Bitrate)
So you will need Real Player or a mac version of Real Alternative

Is the Real Player from this link applicable to Mac as well ?
Can a Mac play rmvb files ?
Or you meant to say, Real Player cannot play in Mac & that Mac needs Real Alternative to play rmvb files ?
Thanks

Trouble playing .avi and .mpg files

I'm about ready to throw my Panasonic HDC-TM15 out the window.
I used the camera memory to shoot video files and then uploaded those files onto my work computer, which is an HP. The files came in as .m2ts which would only play in the Panasonic video-editing software. Through this software I was able to convert the files to .mpg.
I decided I wanted to use my new Mac Book Pro to edit the video files so I moved all the files (both .mpg and .m2ts) to an external hard drive and then plugged that into my MacBook. However, the files will not play through quicktime at all. I tried opening some old .avi files and that won't play either.
I'm really fed up and I don't understand why these files (.mpg, .m2ts, .avi) will not play on my macbook. Any suggestions?

Both MTS and MPG files are variations of MPEG; .mts is typically an MPEG-2 Transport Stream while .mpg is typically an MPEG-2 Program Stream (but not always). So you're essentially converting from one MPEG format into another and obviously that doesn't help.
As Jeremy Hansen already suggested, try using MPEG Streamclip (freeware) along with Apple's QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component ($19.99 USD) to convert the original MTS files into a codec that your system can play/work with.
Jeremy is also correct about .avi files. AVI is merely a container; the audio and video streams contained within could have been made from any number of codecs, not all are available for a Mac. You could try downloading Perian ( http://perian.org/ ) to see if the added codecs from that package will let you play and/or convert some of the AVI files.

Sound but video frozen when playing .AVI and .MP4 files

I have several movie AVI movie files that cannot be played properly with Quicktime pro 7.4: the sound plays normally, but the video image remains frozen. These files play perfectly with VLC and Real Player. The identical problem happened with an iTunes movie rental. The problem persists after installing Perian, and re-installing Quicktime.
Any recommendations about how to troubleshoot this?

Here's what my Movie Inspector states. What do I need to do to get Quick Time to show my video? Audio is working fine. Am I out of luck?
If I remember correctly, "m2v1" identifies "muxed" MPEG-2 content which has been imported from a camcorder by any current/recent version of iMovie. Basically, it is an all I-frame version MPEG-2 video. (I.e., all P- and B-frames have been converted to I-frames to make the video QT edit compatible on systems with iMovie '07 thru iMovie '11 installed.)

Playing AVI and MKV on a Mac questions

First let me say I'm converting to Mac soon. Hence these questions.
I know VLC player can play AVI and MKV files on a Mac. But I want to use DivX Plus Player cause it has a prettier user interface. Does DivX Plus Player play all AVI and MKV files on a Mac?
Does Perian still work on the latest version of Mountain Lion?
Does converting AVI and MKV files to MP4 using the free software Handbrake cause severe loss of quality?
Does an App exist on the Mac App Store that can play AVI and MKV files?
Thank you.

Depends on whether or not the codecs cotained in the AVI or MKV files (AVI and MKV are only file containers—not compression formats) are supported by the DivX installation or your Mac component configuration.
Does Perian still work on the latest version of Mountain Lion?
The Perian package still works under Mountain Lion but some codec components may only be available via the older QT 7 player app. However, DivX codecs may or may not have conflict problems with the Perian components.
Does converting AVI and MKV files to MP4 using the free software Handbrake cause severe loss of quality?
Again, this would depend on the specific codecs used in the AVI or MKV file containers. Basically if the content is compatible with the formats supported by FFmpegX software, then they will be supported by HandBrake. As to loss of quality, the depends on the quality you start with in the source file, the specific settings used for the conversion, and the target display dimensions of your conversion. In some cases where the source data is already compressed as MPEG-4 or MPEG-4/AVC content, the data can the resaved to MOV, MP4, and/or M4V file containers withould having to transcode any data.
Does an App exist on the Mac App Store that can play AVI and MKV files?
Basically, any App Store application that can convert AVI or MKV files using its own internal codec support and has a built in player module should be able to play such files. And more are available online besides those in the App Store.

Playing audio and video files in JSF (.wav,.mp3)

Hi,
I would like to know how to play audio and video files such as .wav,.mp3 in jsf .
could any one please post the code for playing the wav files.
Thanks,
Ram

There is no JSF component to do this, so you would have to write your own custom component to render an <object ...> element.
Or, you can use <f:verbatim> wrapped around an html <object ...> element.

Maybe you should try to convert from wma or rm to a supported format before attempting to play it.

How do you play MPG and WMV files on a MAC?

I am no longer able to play MPG and WMV files on my MAC. I have Flip4MAC, which is I think what I used to use to play them (but not sure). All I know is that I used to be able to before but now they won't play. Do I need some sort of different software or has Microsoft started making these files in a way that won't allow MAC users to play them? If anyone is kind enough to help, please explain in the most basic terms as I'm not that computer literate.

If the .mpg/.mpeg files are non-rights-protected you should be able to play them in Quicktime or iTunes. If the wmv files are non-rights-protected you should be able to use Flip4Mac. If the mpg/mpeg or wmv files are rights-protected you'll need the software or subscription that allows you to view copyrighted files.
