I'm trying to play avi files with quicktime/jit.qt.movie. I have been unable to do so. I have download several codec packs and the files will play on all other applications that I have.

If the files will play with one application doesn't this mean I have the correct codecs installed and so quicktime should be able to use those codecs? I've tried reinstalling QT but this has made no difference.

I've been looking through lots of forums, and though it seems that lots of othere have had the same problem, I have been unable to find a solution except 'install more codecs'.

If it doesn't work after installing Perian, you may be out of luck. Perian's amazing.

Hi, Thanks for the post. This would be ideal but I should have mentioned that I am running on Windows XP.
