Recently, I was acquired a DivX video that I wanted to play on my Intel Mac. Initially, it wasn’t recognized by Quicktime as a compatible video format. That was remedied by installing the latest DivX codec and Player.
Unfortunately, while the video played fine from that point on, the audio track accompanying it would not. Quicktime was identifying the audio codec as ‘ms ‘, yet other applications in Windows said it was AC-3, Dolby Digital. After messing around with a few “universal” AC-3 codecs that either crashed Quicktime or failed to produce sound, I came across Perian, the self-proclaimed Swiss-Army Knife for Quicktime.
