Hi guys,
Just wondering, what audio codecs do you guys use on your mac??
I have a few music videos downloaded but there is no audio for it....only video....b4 playing the video, quicktime pops up and said it needed to download some software 1st (i presume this is the codec).....
OT a bit...
I downloaded the music videos using my BT machine (yeah, my windows pc has been downgraded to a BT machine) and i transfered it to my Macbook....my BT machine, as usual, couldn't play the music video at all.....
If i remembered correctly, this happened to nearly all my downloads recently...all cannot play at all using windows and only video from my mac, no audio...
Could this be the BT machine's problem or do i just need an audio codec for my mac??
