How to play site videos on a Mac?
I've downloaded Real Player for Mac but the audio is scrambled and therefore of no use. Anyone know of a player that will play the files on this site
properly? I'm on Intel, OS 10.5.8. PC is not an option.
Thanks

Hi Michael,
on Windows and Linux one of the best video players is VLC.
And the best is ... it is freeware.
HERE you can download a Mac version of VLC.
PS: For Youtube you need Flash Player for Mac.

Thanks Chris. I tried it but it still didn't work. I can't figure it out. All other sound works fine. You Tube, Quicktime etc. But not the videos on
the site. Oh well, I'm moving on. Lots of ways to practice.
Cheers

Which videos exactly? THIS videos?
PS: Download the RM-files to your harddisk and open them with VLC and they should work. For the WMV videos you'll need the Windows Media codecs for
Mac and Apple Quicktime ... see HERE.

They do, I bet, if you download the RM files again and open them with VLC.
I hate Real Media ... horrible codec.

Hey Chris, thanks for sticking with this. You were right again. Apparently the old downloads didn't work with VLC but when i deleted the old ones and
downloaded a new one ......... it worked.
I'm not sure why the old ones didn't work, perhaps they became infected with a real audio virus and couldn't recover LOL.
Anyway, thanks again and cheers.
