my friend sent me this video and its a .avi file. the video plays very well in quicktime but the audio doesnt work. In VLC i get the audio just fine but the video is choppy. whats going on here? do i need some plugin for quicktime to get this audio (i have the latest updates), or is there a better video player that will play both the audio and video?

thanks for anyones help.

Try the DivX codec.
Usually VLC plays everything fine unless you're processor is too slow (G3 etc). How big is the file?

Can you post the name of the codec used to encode the video? You can find the information under Movie/Get Movie Properties.

You can try MPlayer from http://mplayerosx.sf.net

It's still beta, but it will probably play the file as it should. If your computer is too slow, you can switch on "Skip frames on slower computers".
