Hey :)

I just bought my frist mac yesterday and I LOVE it bye bye windows ^_^

anyways after learning how to use everything there is one thing that is a bit of an annoyance. I would like to be able to watch my anime and other videos I have ripped in front row but it doesn't seem to work...or at least notice them. I am suppose to put them in a certain folder or am I out of luck?

TIA

Rule :alien:

You need to put them in your Movies folder in your User directory. However, if they're not Quicktime files it won't play them. Unless, of course, you install the right codecs. Look for Perian and Flip4Mac - that'll let you play pretty much anything through Front Row.

cool it works sort of. a few of the videos just show a green screen and then take me back to the menu. but some videos play just fine.
