Hi there, i have iBook g4 933mhz 256mb ram and some *ahem* hdtv sourced Divx and Xvid files don't play so well through QuickTime player, i downloaded the official codecs for Quicktime from Divx and Xvid sites....



So.... me question is given my computer specs, any other players i could try? frame rates get a bit cludgy at the moment on fast moving scenes like chase sequences and stuff like that



thanks for your help

    omigod, thankyou thankyou thankyou... now jennifer garner looks even more yummy



    seriously, awesome stuff. especially when you set ffmpeg to 'hurry up' on the decoding... quicktime player is slightly prettier but VLC is Smooooooth



    aw yeah.........



    great signature by the way

    Not that I am recommending it over VLC, but MPlayer is also a decent product. I use it a lot on the linux side.
