how to view avi format clips?

AVI is a container format, so there are many ways that the audio and video contained within can be compressed. Depending on what compression is used you'll need a different codec in order to open the file correctly. A codec is a program that can compress or decompress a file ((Co)mpress,(Dec)ompress). Codecs are integrated with video playback software like Windows Media Player, so you never know that you're using one, however, certain codecs, like the Divx or Xvid codecs, need to be downloaded and installed seperately.\n\nA good, simple player that has most of the major codecs used already pre-installed is the Classic Media Player by Storm. This may also be called Storm Codec 5. You can download it for free at: \n\nhttp://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Video/Codec-Packs-Video-Codecs/Storm-Codec.shtml\n\nIf you use this player to open your video files you shouldn't have to worry too much about codecs, since it comes with most of them installed already. However, if you like to use Windows Media Player, and refuse to change, go ahead and follow one of the other answers link to the appropriate D/L page for the codec that you need.\n\nHope that helps!\n\n-Scratch @ http://www.somethingslacking.com/

What type of movie clips are you trying to view?  What is your equipment?  If you're on an Intel, check and see if the plug-in is universal.  If its not, you will need to run your browser using Rosetta.  Here's how:\n\nFind the browser's app in the Finder and click on it\nGet Info by pressing Command-I or File>Get Info\nclick the check next to "Open using Rosetta"\n\nIf that works, I would suggest making a copy of the app, and having one run natively and the other on Rosetta.

Usually, if you're about to view a clip, the site will have a box next to or around it letting you know where and how to save it. Otherwise, before you click on the link, right-click on it with your mouse and choose "save-as" and see if it will allow you to save it to your computer. Another possibility is that when you click on it, a dialogue box will pop up and ask if you want to run the clip or save it.

Bit comet has a "preview" button to view any video that you are downloading before its done. This is a great feature that allows you to make sure you are getting what you want. To view the videos you need 1, the correct video player and 2, the correct codex. Some (Real player) videos can only be viewed on "Their players" I use windows media player, quick time, free ace DVXplayer, Win amp and NERO showtime And have not come across anything i can not view. All of these are free except Nero. I try to avoid Windows media files as they seem to be the most commonly corrupted format.

you can get the clip from wherever, i used to download anime from a website, i think it was animecrave or something like that but they don't let people download it for free now, so...but i heard there's some software you can use to download from youtube and google. Once you have the clips, you can use any software to make an amv, but i recommend Window Movie Maker, I'm new at making amv but WMM is so simple and just what i needed, my first clip turned out to be great ^_^
