The most common containers you will find is the AVI, OGM and MKV. In fact, there are no XviD files per say but many different common multimedia containers that can store XviD video content. Probably, your file is named something along the lines of ''. It is fairly impossible that you will have a file with the file name extension. It should be compatible with all previous XviD codec releases and also includes some security-related fixes, so an update is highly recommended. XviD Codec v1.2.2 Released The XviD team today released the long awaited XviD codec v1.2.2, which primarily is a bugfix release that addresses various bugs that have been reported about the XviD codec v1.1.2. The Mac codec you can download there is technically not a version of XviD it's unrelated code that tells the DivX component to decode XviD. Then, I double-checked Safari under "Help" to check the list of internet plugins, but the VLC plugin isn't showing up in that list, even though the plugin file is in my internet plugin folder on my computer.In the article, there is a link with the title 'Download the XviD Codec for Windows or Mac' linking to. Still, no difference when I tried to play the files. So I downloaded that, along with a plugin for it. Then I read online that Perian isn't really for streaming, just for downloaded files, so uninstalled that and reinstalled the xvid codec again.Īround this time, I read that VLC almost always worked for people. Then, I saw a lot of people saying you should use Perian instead (and to uninstall the xvid codec if you did this).

I downloaded it, put the xvid component in the library/quicktime folder, restarted the computer and then tried again. I'm trying to stream some videos online but I keep getting messages that say I need to download the xvid codec to play them. So, I've been scanning the web for HOURS trying to get some help with this.
