Lightbulb Go to http://www.divx.com...

Go to http://www.divx.com and download the Mac OS X alpha software. It works fine and only involves dragging some files into /Library/Quicktime. You don't even need to restart the Quicktime player. There's also a handy Divx Validator for converting peski Divx files that can't be immediately recognized by Quicktime.

Exclamation Yes, log out.

Yes, try logging out and in. I didn't have to, but the Divx software might be different and I'm sure my machine is configured, uh, differently than yours. Let us know how it goes!

Talking E-mail me.

E-mail me at chenly@mn.rr.com. I'll e-mail a tarball of all my /Library/QuickTime components. Just copy them in, replacing anything with the same name.
