Applications :: Can I Stream Divx Files With VLC Media Player?

Jan 31, 2010

I was wondering if it is possible to use VLC media player or video LAN to stream divx videos off the internet. I like to watch divx videos on stagevu but i dont like to use divxs player because it seems buggy. I have downloaded VLC before I had the divx player and couldnt figure out how to get it to play streamed videos. Is VLC capable of this or is it just for media on the hard drive or a disc.

Applications :: Can't Open Avi Files To QuickTime & Vlc,/divX Player?

Aug 24, 2008

how to open several avi. movie files I have downloaded onto my Mac (version 10.5). First, I tried to open them just simply on QuickTime player, but a got a 'this is not a movie file' error message, so I Google'd and found advice telling me to download VLC in order to open avi files to QuickTime player. So, I downloaded VLC and tried to open one of the files with that - except when it opened on VLC there was no video and only the audio sped up really fast (you know, where they sound like chipmunks xD) and then it stopped. So, baffled, I then tried to open it again on QuickTime, but got that error message again *

So I Google'd a bit more, and found advice telling me to download DivX Player, which should open/play avi files - so, I d/w'd it.... but alas, the files wouldn't play audio or video, it didn't seem to show up.

I've looked on the info when it's opened on VLC, and it describes the streams (not sure what these are) as having both mpga and mpgv codecs.... so do I need to download a program that can open these files? Is there a codec program I need still?

* OR, am I not using VLC player correctly?

Software :: Converting Eyetv Files To Divx Avi Using Divx Pro?

Oct 25, 2008

I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post this query - moderately new user - well had my imac for 2 years but havent spent a lot of time getting up to speed with it - needs basis only.

query - i have eyetv elgato about 2 years old running vers 2.5.3 of the related software - I have a hard disc full of recorded material and want to convert it to divx - bought Divx Pro - mind you only $30 Australian- in the understanding that it would easily and quickly!! (toast takes about 3 days!) convert .eyetv files to divx avi - that function is available on the pull down menu in eyetv and it did it once when i used a trial version of Divx Pro.

Now it refuses to do it saying that the version i have is not supported and to go back to divx - i have the latest version of divx though.

I do notice that eyetv are selling their own divx converter for $100 and suspect this may be the issue

Does anyone else have this problem or know a workaround to it - do i have to go back to older versions??

Divx have told me that they dont have any agreements with or information about eyetv and to go and ask eyetv. Eyetv have not so far responded to my requests for an answer.

OS X :: How To Stream Wireless Video (divx / Avi) From IMac To TV

Mar 29, 2009

I have an iMac and an ACD monitor connected, therefore I have no open port to connect to my 37" Panasonic LCD.

I'd like to connect the TV to my iMac somehow, I'm wondering if wireless is a (reliable) possibility. If so how do I go about it?

Do I buy a 'media router', such as the D-Link DSM-750? Then simply plug the TV's HDMI port into the D-Link? (I'm not network savvy at all.) Sounds simple enough if that's the case....

Are there any better ways, or better products that I can use to play divx files wirelessly to my TV?

Also, I'm using an Apple Airport Extreme Time Capsule, would the D-Link replace this or could I (easily) hook it up to my Apple router?

OS X :: Drag Files Into Media Player From My Mac Computer

Jul 11, 2009

Just got a Sumvision Cyclone Media Player and connected to my mac book pro. It found the drive called as "New Volume". Open the folder and had different folders inside: Movies, Music, Pictures, System Volume Information. If I get into the folders as for example "Movies" files I cannot drag any files to the folders since a message comes for example:

The item "XXXXX.avi" could not be moved because "New Volume" cannot be modified. What should I do? Is that because I am using a Mac computer? And if so do I need to erase and reformat the drive or what? Desperate here.

Software :: How Do You Get DivX Web Player Off Your Mac?

Dec 6, 2010

How do you get DivX web player off your Mac? I just installed the latest version for DivX Labs and I can't even find it in Applications, it doesn't show up at all and I want it gone!

I desperately need to go back to an earlier version so it will work with my favorite site, and I can't get at it at all, or get it off my Mac. Now I can't watch anything at all on my favorite site, it just flat does not work and I'm desperate!

I could watch videos on that site all day long until I upgraded, and now I'm so totally bummed out! I looked for three years to find that site, and I only found it three days ago!

This new version of DivX web player will not let you download or save anything at all, so I guess I know what their agenda was and who was funded by.

As you know, Boot Camp 3.0 allows the window partition to see Mac files and folders without additional software.

I am trying to set up Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center to use on my Xbox 360.

When I tell Windows Media Player to load files from a Mac folder, I can navigate to that folder no problem, but after going through the steps, it fails to load ANY media.

OS X :: Finding Media Player For Mac?

Mar 4, 2009

Itunes - Tries to "determine" gapless playback information everytime it starts up, won't work when you got your media over a network share.

Cog - It would be the best media player IF it didn't have so many bugs.

Songbird - I can't use my native keyboard media switching capabilities on the macbook pro. Also, it's slow.

So what else is there? (has to have a playlist)
