HT3775 where do i go to get needed sound codec for avi to play on mac?

where do i go to get needed sound codec for avi to play on mac?

There is no single codec for videos that have .avi extensions. AVI is a container format, not a specific type of file. You'll have to find out what codec was used for the videos you want to view to determine what you need. Note that not all codecs for the various .avi movies are available for QuickTime.  
If you want to try "hit and miss", Perian, which rolls several codecs into one package, might work. Otherwise, you'll have to determine what codec was used for that audio track.
If you just want to play the movie any way you can, you can also give this player a try:

  • Do i need a codec for avi files to play in flv

    i have no mpeg moves files on my computer so when it says browse for your flv file it shows me nothing right.

    If you have a registered version of Flash Professional, it comes with Adobe Media Encoder which you can use to create your FLV files. The following article should help
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/quickstart/video_encoder.html
    If you don't have Flash Professional, there are other encoders you can use.  Riva FLV Encoder works pretty well on AVI, MPEG, Quicktime, WMV. View the online-help for a list of supported codecs.

    I presume you mean to play AVI.  AVI is a container that can use many combinations of audio and video codecs.  There is no single codec for AVI.  Fortunately Perian enable Quicktime playback of many of these (but not in iTunes).
    Perian codecs for Quicktime - http://www.perian.org - plugins to add functionality to Quicktime for playing additional audio and video formats. 2012- No longer being developed but may still work.

  • Need sound drivers for a Pavillion dv8309us running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-Bit OS

    Need sound drivers for a Pavillion dv8309us running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-Bit OS. I'm getting "no audio output device is installed" error after trying various different drivers. Sometimes the driver will install and I'll reboot, but to no avail I end up with the same error and a red X over the speaker in the system tray. I've tried Realtek drivers and Conexant drivers from HP. When I run Windows upgrade advisor it recognizes the problem, but Microsoft doesn't offer a compatible driver. At this point I'm very desperate considering everything else works fine and I don't want to go back too XP Media Center. If there is anything you can do to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    I guess this one isn't even 64 bit but it is the one on HP's site:

    I never tried to force a driver but I think it can be done.  I seeing that in some threads.

    Hmm . . . comes with a Utility MPEG2 Component ML app with no explanation of what it's for?
    The utility app is an "assistant PKG installer." It allows Lion and Mountain Lion users to install the older QT MPEG-2 Playback Component installer PKG file which is not allowed to run on its own under Lion or Mountain Lion since these operating systems already have a QT X only MPEG-2 component embedded in the QT embedded structure. Without this utility you would have to either copy the component from an older system to your Lion or Mountain Lion system, use Pacifist for installation, or manually open the PKG contents and transfer the component to the appropriate component folder.
    As to your "discussion" regarding the playback of AVI file types, there are really only two strategies here:
    1) You can add component support so that QT can play the files natively or
    2) You can convert the file contents to compression formats that are natively compatible with the unmodified QT component configuration.
    Each user should decide for his or her own self which approach best suits their needs for a particular source file. In most cases, conforming the system's codec component configuration to play the source file directly results in higher video quality since no transcoding takes place but this strategy will not work if a codec which is required is not available for the user's operating system. On the other hand, converter utilities tend to support more built-in codecs and are easier to use since the user does not have to concern him or herself with the nature of the particular source compression formats but at the risk of some potential loss in visual quality. As to what converter to use, once again this is a matter of personal choice. In the case of commercial converters like iSkysoft, the codecs are built in while MPEG Streamclip accesses the host operating system's QT codec component configuration. I personally prefer the free HandBrake app for AVI, MKV, TS, MTS, and M2TS conversions since it has an exceptionally full-featured X.264 GUI with some user options that 97% of users are likely to never use.

  • Where does the ACS server get the DNS info for IP pools?

    I am trying to change the DNS servers that my VPN users are assigned from the IP pools on the ACS server. Where does the IP pools get the DNS server information. I have changed the DNS Ips on the windows server and rebooted. But the VPN clients are still being assigned the old DNS servers.

    ACS ip pools do not push DNS server information
    It is either being forwarded from VPN concentrator group setup or
    it is being send from ACS user/group setup > Radius(VPN 3000) attributes > [026/3076/005] Primary-DNS.
    Hope this helps.

  • I need the CODEC for Canon camera .avi files

    Hello,
    I am trying to "Get Media" in Premiere Elements that is a .AVI file from a Canon SD850is (compact) camera. I get the following message, "This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed."
    Where do I get the codec? This video plays just fine with Windows Media Player, so I assume the codec is on my computer.
    Please help!

  • Qosmio G10-100 - Need sound driver for Windows 7

    Please please please can anyone help I have spend hours and hours installing loads of difference drivers and none work. I even tried installing DriveRobot and that installed a RealTec 97 but does not work.
    I need a window 7 sounds driver for a G10 100 I am sure there is someone out there that has the same issues. Please note that when I go to the sound device it shows up and no sound drivers installed even if I install the Realtex ones.
    I am pretty sure that the sound card build into the lappy is a SoundMax
    Living in Hope
    Greg

    Hello
    First of all you should check the specifications of your notebook and what sound card is built in. I have done this and the Toshiba page shows a built in AnalogDevices AD1981B sound card. That means a Realtek driver will not work.
    On the Toshiba website I can only find Windows XP drivers that means Windows 7 or Vista is not supported :(
    You can search on external websites and with Google to find a driver. Maybe you have a little bit luck. ;)

  • Where do I get the XviD codec for quicktime?

    I tried googling but no dice. Quicktime seven sometimes tries to get the Codec when some Xvid movies are played but it comes back with a message of unavailable. I can play Xvid on my computer but not with quicktime.

    You were very helpful, I found out after visiting the link you kindly posted that the current codec does NOT work with quicktime 7. That answers all the related issues I have had and why I could play Xvid before (I had a older version of quicktime 6.x). Now I have to choose whether I want H264 viewing abilities with 7 or XviD with a version less than seven. For now I will watch with other players. One thing I like about quicktime pro is the basic movie editing feature. One can cut out a piece with general accuracy and same the result as a self contained file without having to encode again, that saves a lot of time when I have some commercials to cut out of a tv episode before viewing the show.

  • Where can I get alternative export codecs for CS3?

    I have an application requiring exporting of Flash animations to run on an embedded media player. This accepts a number of video formats. The most reliable I have found so far is DivX. The player supports DivX versions 3.11, 4.x & 5.x. The export codec in CS3 is DivX 6.8.5 which is not compatible with the player.
    The player also supports MPEG2 but the quality is not very good. Other options are Xvid Mpeg4 video (doesn't work) and MS Mpeg4 video codec V2 & V3 (also not supported in CS3).
    I have tried downloading a variety of alternative second source file converters but frankly tied myself in knots. Any idea how I can get around this problem and get a DivX 5.x codec to work natively within CS3?

    If you create an actionscript animation in Flash CS3 you can either save it directly as an FLA or output it as an SWF file. However the usual Flash video formats (FLV and SWF) are useless if you want to play a Flash animation on a standalone non-PC based embedded media player since most of these only support things like AVI, MPEG2/4 and DivX. For reference, the player I am using is the Winmate MPC300BT http://www.winmate.com.tw/DigitalSignage/DsSpecBox.asp?Prod=02_0135&Typeid=021001
    Flash does offer the user the ability to export an actionscript animation in a number of alternative video formats via File> Export> Export Movie. Of course doing this means that you can't have interactive elements like buttons in your Flash but if all you want is to output a video stream then this function is very useful. However the DivX codec that is included with CS3 is a later version than that supported by my media player.
    All I want to do is to be able to add a suitable DivX V5 codec to Flash CS3. Is there such a thing and, if so, how do I install it?
