    Hey all, I recently downloaded an avi file but it does not want to work with quicktime 7. When I attempt to open it i get the "quicktime does not support this file" message however when i right click the avi file icon and select get info, the video playback works in the preview section... Do any of you know why this is and how I can get it to work in Quicktime? Thanks!
