[QUOTE="BeaufordBuddy, post: 669623, member: 56835"] Hey everyone. I'm trying to get a list of all the software, utilities, and programs that I will need to install on my new MacBook Pro for all the tasks that I'll need to accomplish (FTP transfers, watching DVDs, listening to music, etc.). I am pleased to discover that Leopard already comes with a lot of cool stuff for me to accomplish these things, however, I'm finding that there are a few things that I'll need to install myself. One of the things I have a question about is codecs. Will I need to install some sort codec pack on my Mac? If so then what's the best codec pack available for Mac? On my Windows PC I installed the popular K-Lite codec pack which seemed to decode everything I downloaded. I'm not sure if the same thing is needed for a Mac or not. I'm combing through the Mac Product Guide ([url]http://guide.apple.com/[/url]) to see what software is available for each specific task that I need to perform and nothing really showed up under "codec pack." Thanks! :D [/QUOTE]
