Problems with IMovie and Divx Plus

When I tried to play the iMovie tutorial I get the following box

“Divx Plus Web Player

The file you are trying to play has failed to finish downloading and can no longer play”

How do I get the correct file back so that I can play the tutorial

Is Divx Plus an integral part of iMovie?

Divx has nothing to do with your Mac unless you have installed Divx and allowed it to set itself as the default player.

You need to supply more info - what OS X version are you using - where are you getting the video that you are attempting to play?

Bobtomay Tks for this reply and recent warning -- I wii not do same questions under multiple sites again. i honestly didn't know.

As far as my question goes, I think you have answered it for the most part. MY system is Mac OS X 10.6.6 (is that snow leopard?) Right now I am just trying to view the tutorial clips that come with iMovie.

If I don't need Divx, how do I get it of my Mac and make my iMovie the default6?

Thanks
