Well, if you are I am missing the same thing. I have some .avi files and if you double click on them Quicktime opens up then errors out. It is missing something. VLC will open them but it maxes out my 400. Is there any way to convert them to mpeg? Jim -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
