Why not read the opening post? I know you're not much of a reader, but really, it's just a couple of lines. :ermm:

All suggestions except VLC are crap as he's running OS X.

You might also try Perian or Plex.

You should get a codec pack installed and then use any player of your choice which supports FFDShow.

Like all the above said use vlc player... Btw vlc is enough for windows 7 users no need for any codec packs it will play anything no problem what so ever

I'm not on Mac, but is installing a codec pack and ffdshow necessary? I had K-Lite's until it started causing me problems with nothing shown instead of the video. Got rid of it, installed ffdshow-tryouts, and then I'd be able to watch movies without problems.

VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC!!!
Got it? If not, one more time: VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC VLC!!!
Btw, latest WMP is somehow better than VLC cause it can interact with GPU and reduce CPU load, but that doesn't matter since you're on Mac.
