Works fine on my system, if you're talking about the video that's in the main section of the site, a bit below the fold.

Perhaps it's because I have both of the following installed:

1) DivX browser plug-in (available from divx.com)
2) Windows Media Components (available from mactopia.com)

I have not messed with Perian, but it seems to be the definitive swiss-army knife of video codecs for Mac OS X. There have been some incompatibilities in the past with QuickTime updates and what-not, but Perian is very quick at fixing these problems with new releases. I use both of the above codec packs, there hasn't been a video yet that I haven't been able to view, and I have never suffered any incompatibilities due to updates. Of course, your mileage may vary.

None of the codec packs, as far as I can see, should be required for viewing your video. Your video track is Apple Cinepak, and your audio should be good as well.

Do you have the Quicktime browser plug-in present in your /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder?
