[QUOTE="baggss, post: 177588, member: 6762"] The most common files that I have issues with are WMV and MPG files that folks send me. For both there are answers. WMP for the mac works well, and there is also now Flip4Mac which plays some WMV files through Quicktime. For MPGs and MPEGs VLC player seems to be the best I have found. There are some AVIs that [i]will not play on a Mac[/i] period. This is strictly because there are some Codecs that have not Mac version as of yet, it's just a fact of life. For the [i]average[/i] user, those are the only issues I can think of. You listed Office and Real Media above, so you know about that. [/QUOTE]
