Play almost every movie format with Quicktime and FrontRow

Sunday, October 15th, 2006

The easiest way to play most movie formats in Quicktime player is to install [Perian][1]. This is a open source Quicktime component that will support codecs such as Divx, XviD, FLV, MS-MPEG4 v1, MS-MPEG4 v2, MS-MPEG4 v3, DivX 3.11 alpha, 3ivX, Sorenson H.263, Flash Screen Video, Truemotion VP6 etc.

Since this is a Quicktime component, this means that you can watch these movies using FrontRow.
