On limewire i've downloaded these avi files and when I open them vlc and quicktime can't view th em becuase they are in this format called lV50. What quicktime codec can view it or anything at all for macs?

weird I wonder why. Is there a way I can convert it to another video codec instead of lv50 and it will still work?

I've tried to upload IV50 files to online conversion services as well.

Indeo Version 5 isn't supported.

alright. Thanks for the help dude.

I may attempt to try using youtube to convert it and I bet it will stream it online then I can rip it from youtube and i will be able to download it.
