I know the whole AVI situation on OS X is pretty farcical, but this takes the cookie. I've gotten everything I've wanted to, to work so far on OS X but this one simply doesn't want to play ball. I've installed a load of codecs:

3ivx
Divx 5
MS MPEG4 1
MS MPEG4 2
FFMpeg

Evey time I try to open it in QT6, it doesn't work, that's with the MPEG2 component as well. It also crashed VLC for me. Windows media player being the piece of crap it is, doesn't recognise it.

The only way I got it to play was in VPC in Windows 2000, clean install and it *just plays*

Here's the AVI, I'd be extremely surpised (and of course grateful) if anyone could get this to work under OSX:

Hmm, seems this is the codec:

Even though I thought I had that installed.

Does anyone know how to get that particular file working? Or even a windows tool to convert it?

Hmm, seems to be some unstandard NON-DIVX mpeg4 file...

Its odd that even VLC wont open it... Id have to say It may not be encoded quite right to be considered a true MPEG4 stream.

Silly M$ and throwing this hacked MPEG4 crap around.
